Answer:

<h2>Stationary phase</h2>

Explanation:

Bacterial growth curve is divided into four phase lag, log, stationary and death. In the lag phase, the bacterial cell do not grow much faster because most of them are adapting to the new environment.

In the log phase, the bacteria grow exponentially because of the presence of abundant nutrients. In the stationary phase, the number of living cells becomes equal to the number of dying cells. So in the stationary phase, the growth rate of bacteria becomes equal to the death rate of bacteria.

This can occur because the culture reached its carrying capacity. Therefore the correct answer is the stationary phase.

  • These defenses start to fight off pathogens before they start the effective action.
  • Innate immunity appears into action immediately when an antigen's presence is detected in the body.
  • It includes physical barriers like skin, chemical compounds in the blood and immune system cells like epithelial cells, that attack the foreign cells in our human body.
  • It is also known as Natural immunity.

steposvetlana [31]
