What can grow and reproduce without a live host?
It is bacteria that can grow and reproduce without a live host
Why do we need to feed bacteria to grow them in large numbers?
Everything else needs food to grow and reproduce. Bacteria are the same. If we only have a few and need to ID them, we have to have them reproduce to have enough in our sample.
Are bacteria and mold alive?
yes, they are living things because they grow and reproduce.
Bacteria are organisms that reproduce asexually asexual reproduction can be an advantage to bacteria if it enables them to?
grow larger populations more quickly
Why do bacteria grow on gelatin in a peri dish and viruses cannot grow in this manner?
Because viruses are considered nonliving and they need a host to reproduce, therfore they cannot live on their own. Now bacteria can reproduce asexually, so they can get bigger and do not need a host..
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.
Do prokaryotic cells grow and reproduce?
Yes, they sure do! Think bacteria: those little boogers wouldn't cover every single surface by the billion unless they could grow and reproduce.
Why are bacteria able to produce large number in such a short period of time?
Bacteria use binary fission( splitting into two identical bacteria) to reproduce, They do this at such a high rate and short time that can grow in number very fast. They reproduce so quickly so they can survive because if they did not have the numbers they had they would be killed much more quickly.
The process by which bacteria reproduce?
Bacteria reproduce by binary fission. In other words, the cells grow and grow until they are double their original size and then they just split in half. In this way they grow exponentially, which is why they can be dangerous to the health of other living things.
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
Why might Archaea be more difficult to grow in the lab than Bacteria?
Archaea often grow in unusual environments that would be hard to reproduce in the lab.
