Answer the question briefly and concisely(see attached photo below)

 

Answer briefly.
1. Cells divide in a constant amount of time during which phase of the growth curve?
2. What circumstances might prevent a lag phase from happening?
3. What causes cells to enter the stationary phase?
4. How do bacteria in a chemostat and those in a batch culture vary from one another?
5. What happens in a chemostat if the dilution rate is higher than the organism's maximum specific
growth rate?
6. Does a chemostat require the use of pure cultures?
7. Why would a complicated culture media for Leuconostoc mesenteroides be simpler to make than one
with a fixed chemical composition?
