</span>The typical growth curve for population of cells can be divided into several distinct phases called the lag phase, log phase, stationary phase and death phase.
Lag phase- When a microbial population is inoculated into a fresh medium, growth usually does not begin immediately but only after a period of time called the lag phase, which may be brief or extended depending on the

Log phase (exponential phase)In this phase - bacterial cell numbers doubles during each unit time period (i.e. generation time). For example: a culture containing 1,000 organisms per ml with a generation time of 20 minutes would contain 2,000 organisms per ml after 20 minute, 4,000 after 40 minute, 8,000 after 60 minutes, 16,000 after 120 minutes. The generation time of most bacteria is between 20 minutes to 20 hours.history of culture and growth conditions.

Stationary phase- The number of new cells produced balances the number of cells that die, resulting in a steady state. In batch culture, exponential growth cannot occur indefinitely because the essential nutrients of the culture medium are used and waste products of organisms accumulate in the environment. In stationary phase there is no net increase or decrease in cell number. 

Death phase- If incubation continues after a bacterial population reaches the stationary phase, the cells may start dying. Cell death may be due to cell lysis and this is also an exponential process but much slower than that of exponential growth.

You have a 12 sided cube that is numbered from 1 to 12. What is the probability of rolling a five?
nadezda [96]

Answer:

1/12

Explanation:

Formula for calculating probability:

            Probability of an outcome A =

     Number of favorable outcomes of A / Number of possible outcomes

       P ( A )  = number of favorable outcomes to A / total number of outcomes

⇒ The number of times 5 can appear when you roll the 12 sided cube once is one time   =  1

⇒ The total number of possible outcomes is 12 - meaning you can roll any number between 1 - 12 when you roll the dice once.   = 12

Therefore the probability of rolling 5  = 1 /12

 Probability = 1 / 12

hope this help and brainiest please. thx

Which of these would not be considered an invasive species?
Marysya12 [62]

Answer:

C) In 1946, the Argentinian government imported fifty beavers from Canada, which were to be released in Cami Lake with the intention of creating a commercial fur trading industry. Though a viable industry ultimately failed to materialize, the introduction of the beavers into the region has had far-reaching consequences.

A bacteria culture starts with 200 bacteria and in 1 hour contains 400 bacteria. How many hours does it take to reach 2000 bacte
RSB [31]

Answer:

At 0hr it was 200 bacteria

At 1 hr it doubled and was 400

Means: at every 1 hr the population of the bacteria doubles

400 bacteria = 1hr

2000 bacteria = X

X = 2000 × 1 / 400

X = 5 hrs
