Binary Fission in bacteria if very fast, sometimes doubling every 20 minutes. If bacteria can divide every 20 minutes how many bacteria would there be after 4 hours if there were originally 100?

1. The smallest living cell is Mycoplasma genitalium. 2. The smallest bacteria is Mycoplasma genitalium. 3. The largest bacteria is Thiomargarita namibiensis. 4. The longest bacteria is Epulopiscium fishelsoni. 5....

Initially, the number of cells was 1*10^6  CFU/ml * 100 ml = 1*10^8  CFUThe number of 20-minutes intervals in 6 hours is 18.The expected number of bacteria is 2^18*1*10^8 = 262144*10^8. It is approximately...

GP is An = a(r)^n r - the number of progenies that are 2 (since one cell gives 2 cells) a - the start number of cells, here is 1....

During binary fission in paramecium cells divide into two genetically identical offspring while conjugation in the cells line up side by side and then fuse together. Protozoans reproduce by both...

Question:Distinguish between binary fission and conjugation in paramecium. In binary fission, a parent cell divides to produce two identical cells, each with the potential to grow to the same size as...

Paramecia display a form of sexual reproduction. Two paramecia come along side one another, make contact, and form a cytoplasmic bridge (conjugation). The micronucleus of each organism duplicates twice to...

For every hour, the bacteria multiple by 4t periodsThe exponential function for number of cultures after t hours = 45 × 34tNumber of culture after 5 hours = 45 ×...

Homolytic fission: It is defined as the cleavage in which a covalent bond breaks in such a way that each atom takes away one electron of the shared pair. They...
