Consider the growth curve shown below. Cells were grown in a medium containing 1 % w/v glucose and 0.5% w/v acetate. Calculate the generation time when growing on glucose and also when growing on acetate. Pay particular attention to the split time axis with different time scales. Glucose generation time = hrs Acetate generation time = hrs 1011 1010 109 108 107 106 105 104 10 15 20 25 30 time (hours) HA log of numbers of bacteria LO Consider the growth curve shown below.
