Microscope & Bacteria

Microscopes

We can observe (see) structures within cells (sub-cellular structures) using microscopes.

Bacteria multiply through simple cell division (binary fission), in which one cell divides to produce two cells. The average time for how often the bacteria divide is called the mean division time of that population.

Estimation

A future population of bacteria can be estimated by multiplying the current population by two for every mean division time (time it takes for the bacteria to divide) that passes.
Divisions can occur as frequently as once every 20 minutes in ideal conditions.
