That would be temperature. (:
Hope this helps!
Answer:
30 minutes
Explanation:
Bacteria reproduce by binary fission, a process by which one parent cell divides to form 2 progeny cells. Because one cell produces 2 progeny cells, bacteria are said to undergo exponential ( logarithmic) growth.
As in the case of staphylococcus aureus, we start with 100 cells , and after 90 minutes number becomes 800 that means , firstly the cells doubled (100 x 2 = 200 ) after 30 minutes. Again after 30 minutes they doubled ( 200 x 2 =400 ) and again after 30 minutes they doubled (400 x 2 = 800). So in 90 minutes 100 cells became 800 cells.
Hence the generation time for S.aureus is 30 minutes.
Salinity matters more than depth or density
If they are both carriers , we can create a cross with Rr.
The probability of not even carrying PKU is 1/4 or 25%
The probability of carrying is 2/4 or 50%
And the probability of inheriting the disease PKU is 1/4 , 25%
