Bacteria multiply by division. One bacterium becomes two. Then two divide into four, the four divide into eight, and so on. For

a certain strain of bacteria, the time for this division process is one minute. If you put one bacterium in a bottle at 11:00 p.m., by midnight the entire bottle will be full.
1. At what time will the bottle be half full? t realize that 2. Suppose you could be a bacterium in this bottle. At what tim you were running out of space? Explain your response.

Answer:

1) By 11:30pm

2) Shortly before midnight (few minutes to 12:00am)

Explanation:

Since the strain of bacteria takes 1 minute to divide (double its population), and by midnight (12:00am) the entire bottle becomes full, then:

I) Subtract Initial division time from Final division time i.e 12:00 - 11:00 = 1 hour

II) Split 1 hour into two (60minutes makes 1 hour)

I hour/2 = 30 minutes

Definitely, the bottle will be half filled by 11:30pm

2) Once half filled, the rapidly dividing cells reach for the top of the bottle as midnight approaches. By 11:50pm upwards, bottle space must have been running out

As per the demonstration of Griffith and Avery, it can be concluded that the given experiment finding supports hypothesis III, i.e. genetic material or transforming substance is DNA.

<h3>What is Genetic material?</h3>

Genetic material may be defined as any substance found in the cells of plants, animals, microbial or other origins that hold genetic information and that departs it from one generation to the next.

In 1944, Avery and others concluded that the transforming material was pure DNA, not protein or RNA.

These investigators found that DNA extracted from a virulent strain of the bacterium Pneumococcus genetically transformed an avirulent strain of the organism into a virulent form.

Therefore, as per the demonstration of Griffith and Avery, it can be concluded that the given experiment finding supports hypothesis III, i.e. genetic material or transforming substance is DNA.

To learn more about Griffith's experiment, refer to the link:
