| |
| - | We are trying to find answers to these 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 velocity 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?
| |
| - | ----
| |
| - | *Environment
| |
| - | **we can try to model a variable condition of the environment:
| |
| - | ***100% Suitable for the replication of the bacteria
| |
| - | ***80% Suitable for the replication of the bacteria
| |
| - | ***and so on...
| |

| |
| - | ===Problems===
| |
| - | The most popular replication time for an E.Coli is about 20/25 minutes.<br\>
| |
| - | Can our simulation take so long time?<br\>
| |
| - | How can we simulate on "world" day with 400 bacteria?
