80 E. coli cells will be in the culture after two hours.

<h3>What is culture?</h3>

The development of the human, plant, or animal cells in a lab, as well as microorganisms like bacteria and yeast. Cell cultures can be used for research, medication testing, and infection diagnosis.

Primary (mortal) cultures and cultures of established (immortal) cell lines are the two main categories of cultures.

One of the most crucial methods in cellular and molecular biology is cell culture because it offers a platform for studying the biology, biochemistry, physiology, metabolism, and other aspects of both healthy and diseased cells.

A culture of 10 E. coli cells.

Incubation time = 2 hours = 120min

Doubling time = 30min (120/30 = 4)

So, 1 cell - 30min = 2 cells - 30min = 4 cells - 30min = 8 cells - 30min

Therefore, 8 ₓ 10  = 80cells of E. coli at the end of 2 hours of incubation time.

melisa1 [442]

Answer:

It is a facultative anaerobic organism.

Explanation:

This organism makes ATP (energy provider molecule) by aerobic respiration in presence of oxygen, but when oxygen is removed it is capable of switching to fermentation (sugar consumption increases and growth rate decreases).

This happens because fermentation is much less effective at producing ATP and therefore there is not enough energy for growth.

This organisms are called facultative anaerobic.

Organisms with this type of metabolism include bacteria like Escherichia coli and Salmonella or yeast like Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
