It’s important to have knowledge of their growth, so we can predict or control their growth under particular conditions. While growth for muticelluar organisms is typically measured in terms of the increase in size of a single organism, microbial growth is measured by the increase in population, either by measuring the increase in cell number or the increase in overall mass.
