Biomass

... calculate growth based on N0 and Nt? What I came up with is that...and I am wondering what do you think is the most accurate of these : 1. "Biomass accrual" Nt-N0 2. Nt/N0 (just a ratio!?) 3. The number of doublings/cell divisions? = log(2) Nt/N0 In was using the later one, but not ...

... word for producer? Autotroph True. Green plants, some bacteria and some algae are autotrophs. 2. Which of the following types of organisms produce biomass? producers This is true. Producers produce biomass via photosyntesis (6CO2+12H2O -> C6H12O6+6O2+6H2O. Oxygen and carbondioxide is transformed ...
