A microbiologist inoculates a growth medium with 200 bacterial cells/ml. If the generation time of the species is 1.5 hours. How many generations will it take for the culture to contain more than 6,000 cells/ml? How long, in hours, will it be before the culture contains more than 6,000 cells/ml? Show your calculations.
