When conditions are ideal, bacteria can reproduce by fission at very high rates in a short period of time. When conditions are poor, bacteria can easily adjust and reproduce in the new environment. When conditions are poor, bacteria can easily adjust and reproduce in the new environment. When conditions are ideal, all bacteria reproduce by fission at the same rate over a similar period of time. When conditions are ideal, all bacteria reproduce by fission at the same rate over a similar period of time. When conditions are poor, all bacteria form endospores that activate when conditions improve.
