Answer: 59
Explanation: No. of bacterial cell initially present in the cup = 1
The population of bacterial cells becomes twice in every minutes,
Thus,
No. of bacterial cells after 1 min = 2*1 =2^1
No. of bacterial cells after 2 mins = 2*2 = 2^2
No. of bacterial cells after 3 mins = 2*2*2 = 2^3
No. of bacterial cells required to fill half cup = 1/2 *2^60
=2^60-1
=2^59
Therefore, the time taken by bacterial cells to fill half cup= 59 minutes
