The document discusses various factors that affect bacterial growth, including:
- Binary fission, where bacteria divide into two equal cells through asexual reproduction.
- Bacterial growth follows logarithmic or exponential growth, doubling with each cell division.
- Stages of bacterial growth are lag phase, log/exponential phase, stationary phase, and death phase.
- Classification of bacteria is based on nutrient requirements, temperature preferences, pH tolerance, and oxygen requirements, which all impact their growth rates.
