Population Dynamics

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 appen?
    • Where the bacterium get placed?
      • Maybe following the bacterium motion
      • Random
      • Fluid dynamics?
    • Motion properties after the separation.
      • Velocity ofter separation.
    • The two bacteria after the separation have the same size?

  • Genetic information
    • After the separation the two bacteria have the same genetic properties:
      • The same replication distribution or the new one has a normal/uniform distribution on the normal/uniform distribution of the oldest one?



Growth

  • Bacteria change size.
    • Limit(Min/Max).
  • Rate of frowth.
  • Separation.
