The generation time g for a particular bacterium is the time it takes

The generation time "g" for a particular bacterium is the time it takes to double its population numbers.

Explanation:

The generation time of bacteria is defined as the time required or taken by the bacteria to double its population numbers with a specific period.

It is represented as "g"

"t" as the time in the generation frame or period per generation

"n" as the number of generation.

Therefore it is calculated as g = t/n.

For example staphylococcus is said to have a generation time of 30minutes, while E.Colli has generation time of 20minutes.
