Question 2 :
Primary metabolites are synthesized during
phase.
lag
log
stationary
death​

Answer 1

Answer:During lag phase, bacteria adapt themselves to growth conditions. It is the period where the individual bacteria are maturing and not yet able to divide. During the lag phase of the bacterial growth cycle, synthesis of RNA, enzymes and other molecules occurs.

growth is followed by the stationary phase, in which the size of a population of bacteria remains constant, even though some cells continue to divide and others begin to die. ... During the stationary phase, the rate of bacterial cell growth is equal to the rate of bacterial cell death.

In the stationary phase, growth reaches a plateau as the number of dying cells equals the number of dividing cells. The death phase is characterized by an exponential decrease in the number of living cells
