Textbook Question
Chapter 14.5, Problem 2MI
MICRO INQUIRY For what other compounds would you also see this kind of diauxic growth?
Figure 14.16 Diauxic Growth. The diauxic growth curve of E. coli grown with a mixture of glucose and lactose. Glucose is first used, then lactose. A short lag in growth is present while the bacteria synthesize the enzymes needed for lactose use.

Why differential centrifugation have poor yield, poor resolution and the fact that preparations obtained are never pure?
DRAW IT Draw the following growth curves for E. coli, starting with 100 cells with a generation time of 30 minutes at 35°C 60 minutes at 20°C, and 3 hours at 5°C. (A) The cells are incubated for 5 hours at 35°C. (B) After 5 hours, the temperature is changed to 20°C for 2 hours. (C) After 5 hours at 35°C, the temperature is changed to 5°C for 2 hours followed by 35°C for 5 hours. *
