The goal of this study is to answer the following questions: 1. In diauxic growth, why is the maximum growth rate on the preferred substrate higher

The goal of this study is to answer the following questions: 1. In diauxic growth, why is the maximum growth rate on the preferred substrate higher than that on the less preferred substrate? 2. Under what conditions are the substrates consumed simultaneously? 3. What types of preculture-dependent growth patterns are feasible?
