Answer:

Six hours

Explanation:

Given that;

A microbiologist inoculates a flask of broth with 1 ml of 100 bacterial cells/ml

Also, the generation time of the species is 1 hour and there is no lag phase

i.e there is no  period where the individual bacteria are maturing, this will enhance a faster replication

So , since the generation time is 1 hour and we are being given 100 bacterial cells/ml

∴

After 1 hour = replication of the bacterial cells would have been doubled to =200 bacterial cells

2nd hour = 400 bacterial cells

3rd hour = 800 bacterial cells

4th hour = 1600 bacterial cells

5th hour = 3200 bacterial cells

6th hour = 6400 bacterial cells

∴ We can see that at the 6th hour, the culture has contained more than 6,000 cells/ml

There are some structures that are common to all prokaryotic cells, and others that are only found in some bacterial species or
puteri [66]

Answer: Nucleiod, Ribosomes, flagella, fimbriae, plasma membrane

Explanation: A typical bacteria cell possess these structures mentioned above. nucleiod is a chromosome , a nucleic acid which can be DNA or RNA, It is the genetic material of cell which every bacteria cell must have. Flagella ensures swimming movement of all bacterial cell. Ribosome of bacteria cells ensures protein synthesis. Since all bacteria cells meet, plasma membrane is permeability barrier, location of enzyme and transports solutes. Fimbriae enables bacterial cells attachment to surfaces
