Answer / juan
No, they are different. The time it takes a colony that has
been growing exponentially to double its numbers (doubling
time) is longer than the time it takes a single cell to go
from division to division (generation time) because more of
the cells are the ones that have just divided than the ones
that are about to divide.
Mathematically, N=N0*2^(t/td) = N0*e^(t/tg) --> td=log(2)*tg

Answer / ashoo
A bacterial generation time is also know as its doubling
time.
Doubling time is the time it takes a bacterium to do one
binary fission starting from having just divided.
And ending at the point of having just completed the next
division.
Generation times vary with organism and environment and can
range from 20 minutes for a fast growing bacterium under
ideal conditions, to hours and days for less than ideal
conditions or for slowly growing bacteria.
