How long do bacteria live?
How long do bacteria live?
Bacteria do not generally die from old age, although they will die if food becomes limiting or the environmental conditions are not adequate. Bacteria grow and divide into two new cells. The greatest cause of bacterial death is predation. If the nutrients needed fro growth are lacking the bacteria may survive (e.g. remove ammonia and nitrogen) but the population will not increase.
