The scientist who refuses to consider new evidence, assuming he or she is not biased or incompetent could do it because if there is a big amount of evidence indicating otherwise, this one new piece of evidence is unlikely and they prefer to wait for more evidence or for analysis of whether this current evidence is not false.

thus this scientist is being skeptical (practicing skepticism) by ignoring this new evidence.

Nikolay [14]

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.
