Reproduction

Lactobacillus acidophilus reproduces by binary fission, a type of asexual reproduction.  Binary fission is when the bacterium doubles its contents and divides into two.  It is the primary form of reproduction for all bacteria, and can grow the colonies very quickly because each generation increases two fold.  each bacterium split every twenty minutes for an entire day.The picture shown below shows binary fission.
