Bacteria double and keep reproducing continuously. It is convenient to assume that this doubling occurs every 20 minute. Interestingly this means that a cleaning product that kills 99% of the bacteria on a surface and leaves 1% is up to 4% of the original number at the end of the first hour, 32% at the end of the second and back to full strength after another 40 minutes or so.
What else can I help you with?
Do bacteria obtain food and reproduce like the way fungi do?
No, bacteria do not obtain food and reproduce in the same way as fungi. Bacteria absorb nutrients through their cell membrane, while fungi absorb nutrients through their hyphae. Additionally, bacteria reproduce asexually through binary fission, while fungi reproduce sexually or asexually through spores.
Do bacteria need a host to reproduce?
No, bacteria do not need a host to reproduce. They can reproduce through a process called binary fission, where they divide into two identical daughter cells. However, some bacteria do require a host to provide nutrients or an environment for optimal growth and reproduction.
What is the name given to the process by which bacteria reproduce?
The process by which bacteria reproduce is called binary fission. In this process, a single bacterial cell divides into two identical daughter cells.
What is bacteria's way of asexual reproduction?
Bacteria reproduce asexually through a process called binary fission. In binary fission, a single bacterium divides into two identical daughter cells. This allows bacteria to rapidly multiply and colonize new environments.
Under what conditions do bacteria thrive and reproduce frequently by Binary fission?
Bacteria thrive and reproduce by binary fission when: 1- there is enough water 2- there is enough space for the population to grow 3- when their wastes have not accumulated 4- when their is enough oxygen in the air.
What is bacteria that grow and reproduce?
All bacteria grow and reproduce
How quick do bacteria reproduce?
Bacteria can reproduce extremely quickly if in the right environment. Under favorable conditions, a single bacteria can reproduce 108 bacteria in twelve hours.
Do bacteria reproduce sexual or asexual?
it is more likelly for bacteria to reproduce asexually. it is very rare for bacteria to reproduce sexually. but it is possible
What process does bacteria reproduce sexually?
no... bacteria reproduce asexually which means they reproduce by themselves usually by spitting in half
Why don't cyanobacteria and bacteria reproduce by mitosis?
The reason bacteria do not reproduce by mitosis is because bacteria do not contain chromosomes. There are numerous types of bacteria.
How do bacteria reproduce is?
Bacteria can reproduce sexually and asexually. Sexually, two bacteria are involved, but asexually, the bacterium divides on its own in a process similar to that of cellular mitosis.
How does Schizophrenia reproduce?
Schizophrenia is not caused by a virus or bacteria--it does not and cannot "reproduce". Because it is not caused by a virus or bacteria, it is also not "contagious".
Do bacteria reproduce sexually?
no, its asexual
Do bacteria reproduce by spores?
Yes they do
Do bacteria reproduce by itself?
Yes.
Do fungi and bacteria reproduce in the same way?
yes they both reproduce by spores
Why doesnt bacteria reproduce by mitosis?
it does use mitosis, it doesn't reproduce by meiosis.
