Answer»

Right answer is (c) 4

To explain I would SAY: A typical bacterial growth curve has FOUR distinct PHASES, namely log phase, lag/exponential phase, stationary phase, and death/decline phase. Bacteria divide with the help of binary fission. Few other micro-organisms such as algae, PROTOZOA, yeasts ALSO show these same growth phases.
