New cards

What is occuring during the lag phase

cell synthesizing new components for reproduction

<p>cell synthesizing  new components for reproduction</p>
2
New cards

At what phase is the rate of growth and division is constant and maximal

exponential (log) phase

<p>exponential (log) phase</p>
3
New cards

Why does exponential growth stop

resources are limited

4
New cards

At what phase is the total number of viable cells remaining constant

Stationary phase

<p>Stationary phase</p>
5
New cards

What could be reasons for the stationary growth phase

nutrient limitation, limited O2, toxic waste, critical population density reached

6
New cards

At what phase is the number of viable cells greater than the living cells and seeing a rapid decline

death phase
