Making a cell.
The broad processes of bacterial metabolism (fueling, biosynthesis, polymerisation, assembly, and cell division) are interrelated by the fact that each requires as a starting material the products of the preceding phase.
Study Questions:
For each phase list the starting materials and products.
(No more than one phase answered per student, to spread out the activity.)
Could any phase be dispensible? If so under what circumstances?

Yes, thats the correct answer Archeak9.
But you dont have to be a mutant to use amino acids from the environment.
Eg Lactobacilli use many nutrients from the environment and don't make all their own amino acids. Bypassing this biosynthesis can offer growth advantages for some organisms in nutrient rich environments.
