  • Biological exponential growth is the exponential growth of biological organisms. When the resources availability is unlimited in the habitat, the population of an organism living in the habitat grows in an exponential or geometric fashion. ... In other words, the population is experiencing exponential growth.

    I have a word problem for my micro class and I used the formula, but the answer seems so wrong. Here’s the question: suppose meat is contaminated with S. aureus and that the initial population is 150. The generation time is 15 minutes at a room temperature of 82 degrees Fahrenheit. What is the final population of bacteria if growth is allowed for 10 hours? My answer was 164,926,744,166,400

      I think he converted the hours into minutes and then divided it by 30 mins. So, 1 hour = 60 mins and in the word problem it stated for 3 hours. You multiply 60 mins * 3 hrs = 180 minutes then you take the 180 and divide it by 30 minutes and you should get 6. The whole point of that was just to get it in the same units (minutes). :)

    Sir can you please answer this question e coli has a cylindrical shape about 1um diameter and 3 um long. the doubling time of e coli when grown on nutrient agar is about 25 minutes. after 12 hours of growth a colony is roughly 2 mm in diameter and 1/2 mm high. how many cells does the colony contain
    1) 10^5 cells
    2) 10^7 cells
    3) 10^9 cells
    4)10^11 cells

      This is geometry problem, you have to find how many small cylinders will fit into the large one.

      Volume of the colony in um 3,14x1000^2x500=1.5708x10^9
      Volume of the bacteria in um 3,14x0,5^2 x3=2.35619
      number of bacteria 1570800000/2.35619=666669496.1 which is 6.7x10^8
      I just took pure math - but in real Iife bacteria need some live space, so hard to say what kind of answer your professor is looking for.

    Sir, need your help. QUestion 1-15
    apply the principle of exponential growth of a culture as
    described in Question 1-13 to the cells in a multicellular
    organism, such as yourself. there are about 1013 cells
    in your body. assume that one cell acquires a mutation
    that allows it to divide in an uncontrolled manner (i.e., it
    becomes a cancer cell). some cancer cells can proliferate
    with a generation time of about 24 hours. if none of the
    cancer cells died, how long would it take before 1013 cells in
    your body would be cancer cells? (Use the equation
    N = N0 × 2t/G, with t, the time, and G, the length of each
    generation. hint: 1013 ≈ 243.)

    natural selection is such a powerful force in evolution
    because cells with even a small proliferation advantage
    quickly outgrow their competitors. to illustrate this process,
    consider a cell culture that contains 1 million bacterial cells
    that double every 20 minutes. a single cell in this culture
    acquires a mutation that allows it to divide faster, with a
    generation time of only 15 minutes. assuming that there is
    an unlimited food supply and no cell death, how long would
    it take before the progeny of the mutated cell became
    predominant in the culture? (Before you go through the
    calculation, make a guess: do you think it would take about
    a day, a week, a month, or a year?) how many cells of either
    type are present in the culture at this time? (the number of
    cells N in the culture at time t is described by the equation
    N = N0 × 2t/G, where N0 is the number of cells at zero time
    and G is the generation time.)

    • @GeneticsLessons

      Ok, use this problem and solution as a guide (Problem is a similar but numbers are different - just put your numbers instead)
      Natural selection is such a powerful force in evolution because cells with even a small growth advantage quickly outgrow their competitors. To illustrate this process, consider a bacterial culture that contains 10^6 (1,000,000) cells that double every 32 min. One cell acquires a mutation that enable it and its progeny to divide with a generation time of only 27 min. Assuming there is nothing to limit the growth of the culture (e.g. unlimited food supply) and no cell death, how long should it take for the mutant cells to overtake the culture? Give your answers in hours (hr) rounded to the first decimal place. The number of cells N in the culture at time t is given by where N0 is the number of cells at time zero and G is the generation time. (Eqn: N= N0 x 2^(t/g)
      OK, so what you have to do is to figure out the population of each type as a function of time.
      For the wild-type, it's
      10^6 * 2^(t/32)
      and for the mutant it's
      1 * 2^(t/27)
      Now just set these equal to each other and solve for t. So:
      10^6 * 2^(t/32) = 1 * 2^(t/27)
      or 10^6 = 2^(5t/(32*27))
      if we take the log2 of both sides we get:
      log2(10^6) = log2(2^(5t/(32*27)) or
      19.93156857 = 5t/(32*27)
      17220.87524 = 5t or
      t = 3444.175049 minutes
