Summary Introduction

To determine: The bacterial growth after 16 hours whose multiplication time is 30 minutes.

Introduction:. The rate of multiplication of bacteria varies among the members of different species. For example, the multiplication rate for E.coli is 20 minutes while for Mycobacterium leprae it is 14 days.

Describe the four phases of bacterial cell division. Where would horizontal gene transfer occur? Where would sporogenesis occur? If antibiotics generally target cells which are growing and dividing as fast as they can, when would antibiotics be most effective? If a culture had 4 cells to begin with and has a generation time of 60 minutes, how long would it take to get 1,048,576 cells?
The following image shows part of counting chamber you used to estimate cell viability for yeast cells. If the dilution factor you used was 1:200, and the total sample volume was 5 ml, then calculate the cell viability, the cell density and the total cell.
In the experiment by Bernard Davis, bacterial F+cells and F- cells were growing while separated by a filter. Filter pores allowed the passage of the liquid medium but not the bacteria cells. As a result: 1) prototype colonies grew well on minimal medium 2) F+ cells were converted to F- cells despite the physical separation  3)F- cells were converted F+ cells despite the physical separation  4)F+ cells were not converted to F- cells because of the physical separation  5) F- cells were not converted to F+ cells because of the physical separation  6)there was no growth of prototypes on minimal medium
