A) 16
B) 8
C) 64
D) 4
Correct Answer: C
Solution :
Bacteria generally reproduces by binary fission - a process in which division gives rise to two identical cells. 20 minutes \[=1/{{3}^{rd}}\] of an hour. 2 hours: \[2\times 3=6\]thirds of an hour= 6 divisions. If all survive and reproduce, the population after 6 divisions\[=2\times 2\times 2\times 2\times 2\times 2=64\]bugsYou need to login to perform this action.
