Suppose there is a medium and the bacteria's density is 5 X 10 ^5 and the generation time is 35 minutes. What is the density after 175 minutes?

Question

Simran Vinaik · Answer

The bacterial cells will divide 5 times (175 min/35 min)as generation time is 35 minutes.
Nt= No* 2ⁿ
where Nt= final cell number
No= original cell number
n= number of generation
Nt=5 X 10⁵* 2⁵
Nt=5 X 10⁵ * 32
Nt= 160 *10⁵
or 16*10⁶
