Answer:
<h2>a. 1000 X 2^8</h2>
Explanation:
As given;
Initial population of bacteria= 1000;
Log phase growth is exponential phase, period in which bacteria gets double.
Generation time= 15 minutes;
it means, bacteria get double in every 15 minute,
so after 2 hours, bacteria will have 8 generation times;
so the final generation of bacteria is =1000 X 2^8.
Final bacterial generation after two hours = 256,000(1000 X 2^8)
Answer:
A
Have a great day, and I hope this is right!
