The initial population was 80

<h3>Solution ;</h3>

The bacteria culture has a constant growth rate.

So, N(t) = No*(1 + r)^t

Solution :

400 = No*(1 + r)^2

50000 = No*(1 + r)^8

(1 + r)^6 = 125

=> 1 + r = 2.2360

No = 400÷(1 + r)^2 = 80

Hence, now we can conclude that the initial number of the bacterial culture was 80.

Why don't we have a genome sequenced from Homo erectus?
max2010maxim [7]

Explanation:

Homo erectus fossils are known as the oldest form of early humans that had human like body structure with shorter arms and elongated legs and shorter arms. These features gave them the ability to walk and also run long distances.

The reason that we do not have a genome sequenced from Homo erectus is that their DNA is too similar to ours to prevent contamination. There are enough fund which could have been used to carry out the research but their similarities to human beings has been the source of concern.
