The phase of the bacterial growth curve in which the rate of cell division equals the rate of cell death is the .

The options

A. Lag phase

B. Log phase

C. Stationary phase

D. Death phase

E. Telophase

The CORRECT ANSWER IS C.

C. Stationary phase

Explanation:

A. Lag phase❌

The phase of the bacterial growth curve where newly inoculated cells are adapting to its new environment. It seen to undergo metabolism but no observable growth or division.

B. Log phase❌

The phase of the bacterial growth curve that reveals maximum occurrence of cell division. Hence, the name logarithmic phase or the exponential phase.

C. Stationary phase✔✔✔

In this phase, population of bacteria size is observed to be constant, despite some cells undergoing division and some begining to die.

D. Death phase❌

The last growth phase, where there is a reduction in nutrients plus a reduction in cell number

E. Telophase❌

Telophase is the last phase in both meiosis and mitosis in an eukaryotic cell. In this phase, the impacts of prophase and prometaphase are reversed.
