During which stage do bacteria reproduce and grow rapidly?

Dormant stage
Active stage
Spore stage
Decline stage

The correct answer is: Active stage

In the dormant stage, bacteria are inactive and do not reproduce or grow as they are conserving their energy for survival. The spore stage is a method of survival for bacteria and is not a stage for reproduction or growth. During the decline stage, bacteria are experiencing a decrease in numbers and activity, so rapid reproduction and growth do not occur. The active stage is when bacteria are actively reproducing and growing, making it the correct answer.
