Stoichiometric equations are used to represent growth of
microorganisms provided a ' molecular formula' for the cells is available. The
molecular formula for biomass is obtained by measuring the amounts of C, N, H,
O and other elements in cells. For a particular bacterial strain, the molecular
formula was determined to be C4.4H7.30 1.2N0.86 . These bacteria are grown
under aerobic conditions with hexadecane (C16H34) as substrate. The reaction
equation describing growth is:
You have been put in charge of a small fermenter for growing the bacteria and aim to produce 2.5 kg of cells for inoculation of a pilot-scale reactor. What minimum amount of hexadecane substrate must be contained in your culture medium?

Following some statement is correct with monohybrid and Dihybrid cross?
A) Two alleles for gene segregate into gametes in equal proportions.
B) Monohybrid F2 phenotype 1:2:1 ratio conclude, there is no segregation in character
C) Monohybrid F2 phenotype 3:1 ratio conclude, there is a no blending inheritance
D) Dihybrid F 2 phenotype 3:1 ratio conclude complete linkage
