Answer:

The correct option is A.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given expression is

[tex](3^2)^4\cdot 3^0[/tex]

According to the property of exponent.

[tex](x^m)^n=x^{mn}[/tex]

Using this property we get

[tex]3^(2\times 4)\cdot 3^0[/tex]

[tex]3^8\cdot 3^0[/tex]

According to the property of exponent.

[tex]x^mx^n=x^{m+n}[/tex]

Using this property we get

[tex]3^{8+0}[/tex]

[tex]3^{8}[/tex]

The total number of bacteria in the dish is 3⁸.

Therefore the correct option is A.
