Draw a graph that shows the potential population growth of a bacterial population that starts with 500 cells. Assume binary fission, a generation time of 30 minutes and reproduction for four (4) generations.
Your lab supervisor asks you to grow a new bacterium they got from a collaborator. You grow them in the suggested nutrient-rich media, and you notice that as the log phase growth progresses, the bacteria seem to turn purple. You mention it to your supervisor and ask whether it is the gradient from very high to low nutrient bioavailability that induces metabolic changes which induces the production of a purple pigment. Your supervisor tells you that is unlikely. What is a more plausible conclusion
A new enzyme (protein) that helps protect a bacterial cell from reactive oxygen species (causing oxidative stress) has been discovered. It can be expected that the gene that codes for this enzyme will be expressed in phase of growth. order to make the enzyme in the lag Not very likely. They just got transferred to fresh new medium, how much stress can they be under? O stationary O late log O log
In a population of cyanobacteria (Chlorogloeopsis fritschii) in a hot spring in Iceland, some of the bacteria can produce chlorophyll f, while some C. fritschii produce only other types of chlorophylls. Chlorophyll f absorbs light outside of the visible light spectrum, namely near infrared light, allowing the bacteria to absorb light that has not been absorbed or reflected by the water or other organisms. The ability to produce chlorophyll f is heritable, and the bacteria with chlorophyll f can live in low-light environments, such as underneath other organisms, or near the bottom of the light-penetrating zone of the spring. What is the adaptation in this population of C. fritschii living in low-light environments? (Choose one.) a) the ability to produce chlorophyll f b) the ability to produce any type of chlorophyll c) the ability to tolerate the high temperatures of the hot spring d) the ability to survive and reproduce
A microbiologist inoculated a flask of nutrient broth with E. coli. The bacterial population entered exponential phase at 11:30 pm and divided every 60 min. At 6:30 am, the culture entered stationary phase with a population of 100,000,000 bacteria mL-¹. At what time was the population 50,000,000 bacteria mL-¹? 5:30 am 12:30 am 4:30 am O Can not be determined from the information given. 3:30 am

In the experiments below, different prokaryotic cells were grown in broth cultures in the presence or absence of an antibiotic (either vancomycin or polymixin) After 1 hour, cells were rinsed, and the percent of bacteria that survived was determined. According to the data, which experiment (A or B) was done with vancomycin and which was done with polymyxin? Explain your reasoning in both cases. 100 0 A Bacillus E. coli with antibiotic without antibiotic B Methanoge n 100 Bacillus E. coli Methanogen
