conversations.value: Solve the following math problem: Under standard growth conditions, the bacterial strain, E.coli, has a doubling time of 20 minutes.   If 1 single bacterial cell is used to start a culture grown under standard growth conditions, how many bacterial cells will there be after the culture is grown for 4 hours?
conversations.from: assistant
conversations.value: 4 hours is 4*60=240 minutes.
  If the doubling time is 20 minutes, then after 240 minutes, the number of bacteria would have doubled 240/20=12 times.
  Thus, starting with only 1 bacterial cell, after 4 hours, there will be 1*2*2*2*2*2*2*2*2*2*2*2*2= 4,096 bacterial cells
