Answer: (C) P, Q and R only
Explanation: In the balanced growth phase, all components of a cell grow at the same rate, and specific growth determined by cell number or mass is consistent. The growth rate is generally independent of substrate concentration within this phase, but it does decrease with decreasing substrate concentration outside of this phase.
