A growing bacterial colony is not an amorphous mass but is a dynamic and differentiated system. It may appear chaotic in the details of its structure but it can be accurately described by simple models for fractal geometry. As Benoit Mandelbrot said: 'Surprise, simple rules can generate rich structures'.
