How many bacteriophages are formed after 25 minutes of initial infection?
Correct answer: B. 200
- A. 50
- B. 200
- C. 10
- D. 1000
Explanation
After 25 minutes of initial infection, about 200 bacteriophages are formed, which corresponds to the burst size of bacteriophage T4. Options with much smaller or much larger numbers (10, 50, 1000) are incorrect because they do not match the typical replication output of bacteriophages.
