The Monod equation relates microbial growth rate to:
The Monod equation relates microbial growth rate to:
Show Hint
In microbial growth studies, remember that the Monod equation helps predict the growth rate based on available substrate concentration.
Updated On: Jun 18, 2025
- Oxygen concentration
- Enzyme activity
- Substrate concentration
- Biomass concentration
Hide Solution
Verified By Collegedunia
The Correct Option is C
Solution and Explanation
The Monod equation describes the relationship between microbial growth rate and substrate concentration, which plays a crucial role in limiting the growth rate when substrate is scarce.
