Question 2 (25 Marks) a. Draw a graph of (log numbers of cells against time) of E. coli cells growing on a medium containing both glucose and lactose. Label to explain what is happening at each phase. [11 marks] b. What would determine the length of the lag phase of a culture? [4 marks] c. Describe how the electronic counter is used to determine the total numbers of cell in the population at stage 3. [2 marks] d. How would you determine how many of the cells in c. are dead? [5 marks] e. Give three ways in which you would confirm that your culture is really E. coli. [3 marks]

Sam boards a Ferris wheel at the 3-o'clock position and rides the Ferris wheel for several rotations. The Ferris wheel has a radius of 12 meters, and when Sam boards the Ferris wheel he is 17 meters above the ground. Imagine an angle with its vertex at the center of the Ferris wheel that subtends the path Sam travels. a. Define a function f that expresses Sam's horizontal distance to the right of the center of the Ferris wheel (in meters) in terms of the number of radians θ the angle has swept out since the ride started. f(θ) = b. Define a function g that expresses Sam's distance above the ground (in meters) in terms of the number of radians θ the angle has swept out since the ride started. g(θ) =
