The bacteria took 1 hour and 40 minutes to fill the initial bottle. Explain how it only took 10 minutes to fill 3 additional empty bottles. Sample Response: The bacteria took more time to double from 1 cell to a bottle full of cells. Once the bottle was full, each cell in the full bottle doubled, causing an additional bottle to be filled in 5 minutes. Then the 2 full bottles doubled in the next 5 minutes, causing all 3 bottles to be full. What did you include in your response? Check all that apply. The full bottle doubled after 5 minutes. The 2 full bottles doubled after 5 minutes. Exponential growth is a multiplicative rate of change.
