JEE MAIN - Chemistry (2025 - 28th January Evening Shift - No. 20)
For bacterial growth in a cell culture, growth law is very similar to the law of radioactive decay. Which of the following graphs is most suitable to represent bacterial colony growth ?
Where N - Number of Bacteria at any time, $\mathrm{N}_0$ - Initial number of Bacteria.
Where N - Number of Bacteria at any time, $\mathrm{N}_0$ - Initial number of Bacteria.

Explanation
Because no. of bacteria initial $=\mathrm{N}_0$ and No. of bacteria at any time $\mathrm{t}=\mathrm{N}$
Since bacterial growth is given as
$$\mathrm{N}=\mathrm{N}_0 \mathrm{e}^{\mathrm{Kt}}$$
Where K = growth constant for bacterial growth
