Answer: Variations of traits causes those better suited to the environment to survive and reproduce. ... Why are advantageous traits more likely to be passed onto offspring? Because they are more likely to survive and reproduce.
Explanation:
Answer:
Little increase in cell number
Explanation:
There are four distinct phases in the bacterial growth curves that is lag, log, stationary and death phase. The lag phase of the bacterial growth curve is characterized by very little increase in the cell number.
The growth rate of bacteria in the lag phase is slow because the medium is new to the bacterial culture and it requires time for bacteria have to adapt to the new cultural environment and to synthesize enzymes required for substrate utilization.
After getting adapt in their new environment bacteria starts to grow at an exponential rate. So little increase in cell number characterizes the lag phase.
The nitrifying bacteria will convert ammonia to nirites in the nitrogen cycle. this will happen in first stage. correct me if im wrong
