We are trying to find answers to this problems and questions:
 
-
 
-
*Bacteria change size.
 
-
**Minimum size
 
-
***When the bacterium will be at the minimum size?
 
-
***How fast the bacterium increase its dimension?
 
-
**Maximum size
 
-
***When the bacterium will be to the maximum size?
 
-
**There is same relationship between velocit and size?
 
-
----
 
-
*Separation.
 
-
**When this happen?
 
-
**Where the bacterium get placed?
 
-
***Maybe following the bacterium motion?
 
-
***Random?
 
-
***Fluid dynamics?
 
-
**Motion properties after the separation.
 
-
***Velocity after separation.
 
-
**The two bacteria after the separation have the same size?
 
-
----
 
-
*Genetic information
 
-
**After the separation the two bacteria have the same genetic properties:
 
-
***same replication time distribution?
 
-
***or the new one has a normal/uniform distribution on the normal/uniform distribution of the oldest one?
 
-
----
 
-
*Growth
 
-
**Rate of growth
 
-
**Connection between the rate of duplication and the growth phase.
 
-
----
 
-
*Standing phase
 
-
**One bacterium can "kill" another one to make its replication?
 
-
***If yes which one is going to die?
 
-
 
-
 
-
 
-
===Problems===
 
-
The most popular replication time for an E.Coli is about 20/25 minutes.
