A bacteria divides by binary fission which divides a parent bacteria into the two daughter cells and generation time refers to the average time difference between two consecutive generations.

The bacterial cell grows by the exponential function that is by $2^{number of generation}$ x initial population of bacteria.

In the given question,

Initial population

the initial population of bacteria - 2x 10³ per ml

So per liter, the bacterial population will be 2 x 10 ⁶

Generation time

1 generation time of bacteria is 30 min.

so 5 hours will have-   $\frac{300}{30}$ = 10 generations

New bacterial population

Using formula $2^{number of generation}$ x initial population of bacteria

$2^{10}$ x (2 x 10⁶)

= 1048 x (2 x 10⁶)

2048 x 10⁶

Thus, Option-A is the correct answer.

Which part of a modern firearm has the same function as the lock on a muzzleloader? safety trigger action barrel?

AveGali [126]

On a modern firearm, the feature that functions like the lock on a muzzleloader is the safety. The safety was added to modern guns to prevent them from accidentally firing, although it should be noted that a safety is a man-made mechanical device which makes it subject to failure at times.
