Picture 1 below is the starting population of the bacteria ... Picture 2 (below picture 1) is the population on day 9 - 1 day after the person stopped taking the antibiotic on day 8. The person was supposed to take the antibiotic for 14 days. However, the person took the antibiotic for only 8 days and then stopped. Explain what has happened to the bacterial population and why it has happened! Focus on what happened between day 1 and day 8 and then between day 9 and day 15.
