Chapter 6 Microbial Growth 1 Growth • increase in cellular constituents that may result in: – increase in cell number • e.g.‚ when microorganisms reproduce by budding or binary fission – increase in cell size • e.g.‚ coenocytic microorganisms have nuclear divisions that are not accompanied by cell divisions • microbiologists usually study population growth rather than growth of individual cells 2 The Growth Curve • observed when microorganisms are cultivated in batch

Microbiology is the branch of Biology that deals with the study of microorganisms and how they influence or work with other living organisms. (Satellite Events Enterprises Inc.‚ 1999) In this paper I will discuss the history of Microbiology and specifically the early theory of spontaneous generation. I will discuss three spontaneous generation experiments and explain why it is obsolete in today’s science. History of Microbiology Since Microbiology is the study of microorganisms‚ it is understandable
