5. Very happy Escherichia coli cells reproduce on a 20 minute time frame (doubling orgeneration time). If you start with 2 cells and keep them happy for two hours, how many cellsdo you expect to have in your culture at the end of the two hours? Try doing it mathematicallyand then draw it like the left hand side of the Powerpoint growth slide.
