a. If an egg salad sandwich sitting in a warm car for 4 hours develops 40,960bacterial cells, how many more cells would result in just one more generation? b. What would the cell count be after 4 hours if the initial bacterial dose was 100?c. What do your answers tell you about using clean techniques in food preparation and storage (other than esthetic considerations)?
