How and under what conditions do bacterial colonies arise?
Bacteria or any organism have basic requirement to survive grow and multiply i.e. is food and nutrition. Bacterial colonies arise when bacterial cell get sufficient amount of nutrient and favourable condition like optimum temprature and pH. These factor influence the multiplication of bacterial cells which leads in the formation of their colonies, this can be observed in laboratory by growing bacterial cells on nutrient agar medium and on incubate it in incubator at specific temp. the colonies on petriplates of nutrient agar shows distince morphology by different bactreial species.
