Question

a molecular biologist measures the mass of cofactor A in average yeast cell. the mass is 45.9pg. What is the total mass in micrograms of cofactor in a yeast colony containing ten fifths cells

Answer 1

Answer:he mass is 45.9pg. What is the total mass in micrograms of cofactor in a yeast colony containing ten fifths cells

Explanation:he mass is 45.9pg. What is the total mass in micrograms of cofactor in a yeast colony containing ten fifths cells

Answer 2

The average mass of cofactor A in a yeast cell is 45.9 pg. If there are ten fifths (10/5) cells in a yeast colony, we can calculate the total mass of cofactor A.

Total mass = Average mass of cofactor A x Number of cells

Total mass = 45.9 pg x (10/5)

Total mass = 91.8 pg

To convert pg to micrograms, divide by 1000:

Total mass = 91.8 pg / 1000 = 0.0918 μg

So, the total mass of cofactor A in the yeast colony is 0.0918 μg.
