Nostrana [21]3 years ago

A hypothesis is an educated guess. This is part of the scientific method developed in science to explain natural phenomena in the environment. Usually scientists use the hypothesis in their controlled experiments. 

Whether it is a fact or not scientists use the hypothesis as a basis or a starting point for further explanations. This is known as the scientific hypothesis. When an educated guess yields the same results over time, the answer is called a theory. Something that is widely accepted but still needs to be proven and investigated further.

irinina [24]

Because of this, bacteria populations can double in four to twenty minutes, giving bacteria the ability to form millions of cells in as little as a few hours. Under the right conditions, a single bacterial cell can replicate into as many as one billion individual bacteria in just 10 hours.
