longest generation time of 75 minutes. B. stearothermophilius had a shorter generation time of 60 minutes. A shorter generation time means that the bacterium can double its population in less time. It is important to keep bacteria at its correct incubation temperature in order to keep them alive. If a person would like to study bacteria, they need to have viable cells to study. It is also important to know the temperature that will result in the fastest growth, in order to get the most visible…
