Match the following growth phase terms to their definitions: Select the INCORRECT match. a. Stationaryphase/ The number of new cells produced equals number of cells dying b. Death phase/ Cells lose their ability to divide and die c. Lag phase/ Organisms are metabolically active but not increasing in cell number d. Log phase/ Organisms divide at an exponential rate with constant generation time e. Chemostat/ Continuous addition of fresh medium, which allows cultures to be maintained
