Key concepts

  • A separable differential equation is any equation that can be written in the form y = f ( x ) g ( y ) .
  • The method of separation of variables is used to find the general solution to a separable differential equation.

Key equations

For the following problems, use a software program or your calculator to generate the directional fields. Solve explicitly and draw solution curves for several initial conditions. Are there some critical initial conditions that change the behavior of the solution?

[T] y = 1 2 y

y = C e −2 x + 1 2
A direction field with horizontal arrows pointing to the right at y = 0.5. Above 0.5, the arrows slope down and to the right and are increasingly vertical the further they are from y = 0.5 Below0.5, the arrows slope up and to the right and are increasingly vertical the further they are from y = 0.5.

Muhamad Reply
Bacteria doesn't produce energy they are dependent upon their substrate in case of lack of nutrients they are able to make spores which helps them to sustain in harsh environments

explain assimilatory nitrate reduction
Esinniobiwa Reply
Assimilatory nitrate reduction is a process that occurs in some microorganisms, such as bacteria and archaea, in which nitrate (NO3-) is reduced to nitrite (NO2-), and then further reduced to ammonia (NH3).
Elkana
This process is called assimilatory nitrate reduction because the nitrogen that is produced is incorporated in the cells of microorganisms where it can be used in the synthesis of amino acids and other nitrogen products
