What is the stage where bacteria grows rapidly?

Under ideal conditions, the growth of a population of bacteria occurs in several stages termed lag, log, stationary, and death.During the lag phase, active metabolic activity occurs involving synthesis of DNA and enzymes, but no growth.Geometric population growth occurs during the log, or exponential phase, when metabolic activity is most intense..Following the log phase, the growth rate slows and the production of new cells equals the rate of cell death. This period, known as the stationary phase, involves the establishment of an equilibrium in population numbers and a slowing of the metabolic activities of individual cells. The stationary phase reflects a change in growing condition—for example, a lack of nutrients and/or the accumulation of waste products.When the rate of cell deaths exceeds the number of new cells formed, the population equilibrium shifts to a net reduction in numbers and the population enters the death phase, or logarithmic decline phase. The population may diminish until only a few cells remain, or the population may die out entirely.


What are the growth stages within a logistic growth curve?

4 stages lag phase, exponential phase, stationary phase and, decelerating phase


There are five stages of growth in an open system of culture?

Lag phase, exponential or log phase, stationary phase, death phase, and phase of prolonged decline.


Why angle modulation is called exponential modulation?

The reason it is called exponential (non-linear) modulation is that the information is encoded within the phase of carrier.


What is Exponential growth phase of microbial growth?

When the bacteria double at a constant rate


What is the G0 phase and what type of human cells are in this phase?

The cells in G0 phase do not go through mitosis whatsoever. These cells only do what they are initially suppose to do, and do not prepare for a division. Many cells in your body are like this. Brain cells are in G0 phase and do not EVER replace itself. However, many cells may also trigger its phase from G0 phase to G1 phase when more cells are needed. When a liver is critically damaged, the liver cells are triggered back to G1 phase to replenish its lost cells. When this is complete, it goes back to being in G0 phase.


What phase of the cells are types of brain cells?

The phase of the cell cycle that the type of brain cells are in is Metaphase.


When do cells enter G0?

After G1 phase the cells enter into Go or s phase.


Where is cells made from?

Growth Phase permutes to the Dna Synthesis Phase; a brief G2 Phase is followed by M - Mitosis - Phase which results in the formation of two Daughter Cells.


Nerve and muscle cells are in what phase?

G0 phase


What growth phase will gram - positive bacteria be most susceptible to penicillin?

Bacteria are most sensitive to antibiotics during the exponential stage (rapid growth).


Do cells in the G0 phase synthesize DNA?

No. DNA synthesis occurs in the S phase. Cells in the G0 phase are not preparing for cell division.
