Question

It takes 1 hr for cell A to complete a cell cycle and produce two cells.The cell cycle of cell Brakes 2 hrs.How many more cells would be formed from cell A than from cell B in 6 hrs

Answer 1

Answer:

6 cells

Step-by-step explanation:

Cell A = 1 hour to complete cycle and produce 2 cells

Number of cycles completed on 6 hours = 6 cycles

Number of cell produced = 2 * number of completed cycles = 2 * 6 = 12 cells

Cell B = 2 hours to complete a cycle ; 2 cells produced per cycle

Number of cells produced after 6 hours :

Number of cycles in 6 hours = 6/2 = 3 cycles

Number of cells produced = 3 * 2 = 6 cells

Difference in cells produced : (12 - 6) = 6 cells
