Column A (Phase)	Column B (Characteristic)
1. Lag Phase	A. Exponential decrease in the number of living cells.
2. Log Phase	B. Adaptation to new environment; synthesis of enzymes.
3. Stationary Phase	C. Nutrient depletion leads to equal rates of growth and death.
4. Death Phase	D. Uniform and rapid cell division; population doubles.
