With a generation time of twenty minutes, and with no limiting factors, a single bacterium, with a biomass of only l0 -12 g, would produce 22 x 10 25 tons of biomass - 4000 times the mass of our planet - within two days. In other terms, a bacterium could, in a non-restricting environment, produce 10 11 times its own biomass of protein alone in a single day.
