To ensure turbulent conditions and minimum mixing time during agitation with a turbine impeller, the Reynolds number must be at least 10⁴. A stirred laboratory-scale fermenter with a turbine impeller 5 cm in diameter is operated at 800 rpm. If the density of broth being stirred is close to that of water. The mixing system is scaled up so the tank and impeller are 15 times the diameter of the laboratory equipment. The stirrer in the large vessel is operated so that the stirrer tip speed (tip speed = π N i D i) is the same as in the laboratory apparatus. How does scale-up affect the maximum viscosity.

In a plant, height is control by three quantitative trait loci.  Each dominant additive allele is contributing 3 cm height in plant. Maximum expected plant height is 20 cm. What is minimum expected height?

If trait are governed by polygenic. If plant genotype AABB  ( 8 cm height ) were cross with aabb ( 2 cm height ) produced F1 and allowed to selfing . which of the following phenotypic height are not observe in F2 plant if all gamete participate in fertilization ?

Assume that three loci, each with two alleles (A and a, B and b, C and c), determine the differences in height between two homozygous strains of a plant. These genes are additive and equal in their effects on plant height. One strain (aabbcc) is 10 cm in height. The other strain (AABBCC) is 22 cm in height. The two strains are crossed, and the resulting F1 are interbred to produce 1000 F2 progeny. what is number of F2 progeny having intermediate height?

A plant height in Maize is control by 3 pair of polygene .Two varieties of maize averaging 120 and 60 inches in height, respectively, are crossed. The F1 progeny is quite uniform averaging 40 inches in height. What is proportional of F2 progeny that is display phenotype either 120 cm or 60 cm height?
