The Oxygen Consumption of a Bird Embryo Increases from the Time

question 51

Multiple Choice

The oxygen consumption of a bird embryo increases from the time the egg is laid through the time the chick hatches. In a typical galliform bird, the oxygen consumption, in milliliters per hour, can be approximated by where t is time (in days) since the egg was laid. (An egg will typically hatch at around t = 28.) Find the total amount of oxygen consumed during the ninth and tenth days ( t = 8 to t = 10) .
