"Unlike multicellular organisms, increases in the size of bacteria (cell growth) and their reproduction by cell division are tightly linked in unicellular organisms. Bacteria grow to a fixed size and then reproduce through binary fission, a form of asexual reproduction.[96] Under optimal conditions, bacteria can grow and divide extremely rapidly, and bacterial populations can double as quickly as every 9.8 minutes.[97] In cell division, two identical clone daughter cells are produced. Some bacteria, while still reproducing asexually, form more complex reproductive structures that help disperse the newly formed daughter cells. Examples include fruiting body formation by Myxobacteria and aerial hyphae formation by Streptomyces, or budding. Budding involves a cell forming a protrusion that breaks away and produces a daughter cell."

How does the London eye have rotational symmetry?
Because the London Eye can turn a full 360 degrees and replicate or look like itself it considered to have rotational symmetry.
Air has 4000 bacteria per cubic meterThere are 120000 bacteria in a room that is 3 m long by 4 m wide What is the height of the room?
Divide the amount of bacteria in the room by the amount of bacteria per cubic meter to discover how many cubic meters the room is: 120,000/4,000 =30 cubic meters Then you set the rest up as an algebraic equation: Volume=LxWxH V= 3 x 4 xH 30=12 x H Divide both sides by 12 in order to isolate Height 2.5=H This means that the height of the room is 2.5 meters.
What bacteria lack in the cytoplasm?
The bacteria that lack cytoplasm, is the eukaryotic cells. These cells do not contain cytoplasm, and they are also not a bacteria that can replicate on its own.

Does bacteriophage feed on bacteria?
Yes, that is the meaning of the name " bacteriophage. " " bacteria eater. " Though they hijack the metabolic and replicative process of bacteria to replicate themselves and not actually eat the bacteria.
Why can bacteria be grown in a petri-dish but not possible for viruses?
Viruses need host cells to replicate and this cannot be done by growing them like bacteria cells are grown.
What ia a plasmid?
Plasmids are a part of DNA but it's separate from the chromosomes. It's able to replicate and they occur in bacteria.
Is mitochondria a self duplicating organelle?
Of course it is. It can replicate itselfThey have their own DNA. DNA is circular like in bacteria

viruses are not alive. APEX
Why does the capability of bacteria to replicate itself rapidly a useful tool for gene cloning?
Make lots of copies of the gene rapidly.
