How would the growth curve be different for an inoculum obtained from the bacterial culture at 37°C and one stored at 4°C? What is the reason for this difference?

a) Predict what the 37°C growth curve would look like if the culture was grown under anoxic conditions. Explain your rationale and use a sketch to aid your answer. b) Predict what the 37°C growth curve would look like if the culture was grown in a defined, minimal salts medium (with glucose). Explain your rationale and use a sketch to aid your answer. (E. coli)

Explain with reasons, how will the growth pattern of a population of bacteria inoculated into a fresh medium from an old culture differ from that of a population inoculated into a fresh medium from a culture in the mid-exponential phase of growth
look at your own plotted growth curves (one for E. coli incubated at 37 degrees C and the other one for E.coli incubated at RT) Do they show all four phases of a typical bacterial growth curve? If not, which one(s) is (are) missing and what could be the explanation?
