Document Summary

Attain a limited size and reproduce frequently. Bacterial and archaeal cells reproduce asexually: the generation (doubling) time is the interval of time between successive binary fission, in pathogens, a shorter doubling time = a shorter incubation period of disease. Microbial reproduction is part of the cell cycle. Binary fission is part of the cell cycle. B period: cell increases in mass and size. C period: dna replicates and the two strands separate. D period : synthesis of a septum forms two identical cells. Lag phase: no cell division occurs while bacteria adapt to their new environment. Log phase is when exponential growth of the population occurs, human disease symptoms usually develop. Stationary phase is when reproductive and death rates equalize. Decline phase is when the accumulation of waste products and scarcity of resource causes the population die. A stressed cell undergoes asymmetrical cell division creating a small prespore and larger mother cell.
