Answer: First, the bacteria will adjust and then it will divide.

Explanation:

Once the bacterial species is put into the cultural medium, there the bacteria present in the medium needs to acclimatize in the medium and then start growing.

There is a lag phase before the log phase because first the bacteria will adjust into the medium and then start dividing.

As we know that the growing medium contains amino acids, growth factors, enzymes and many more things which first needs to be utilized by the bacteria and then it will start dividing.

Which Parts of the Water Cycle involve absorption of energy from the sun?
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]
<span>Evaporation and transpiration.
</span>
The evaporation process uses the sun radiation or sun’s thermal energy for vaporization of a water from the land or soil to be water vapor then in the air. Transpiration on the other hand is the same with evaporation that involves water molecules to be vaporized into the air but it is located in the stoma of the plants. It is like evaporation within plants. This is actually to have homeostasis in plants and still part of the water cycle.

How do you think sub-atomic particles (protons, neutrons, and electrons) affect the atom and its behavior?
Blizzard [7]
Protons and Neutrons affect the mass. Protons and Electrons change the charge of the atom (positively or negatively charged). Valence electrons are the ones that do fun stuff in chemical reactions, they are responsible for making/breaking bonds, at least to my understanding.

Hope this helps.
