The Oxygen Consumption of a Bird Embryo Increases from the Time

Question 43

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
c(t) =0.00272t3+0.138t20.8923t+0.1499(6t30) c ( t ) = - 0.00272 t ^ { 3 } + 0.138 t ^ { 2 } - 0.8923 t + 0.1499 ( 6 \leq t \leq 30 ) where t is time (in days) since the egg was laid. (An egg will typically hatch at around t=28t = 28 .) Find the total amount of oxygen consumed during the ninth and tenth days ( t=8t = 8 to t=10t = 10 ) . Round your answer to the nearest whole number.
