A meristematic cell undergoes three generations of mitosis and 50% of cells again undergo four generations of mitosis . What will be the total number of cells? |
| Answer» MITOTIC division, 2 daughter CELLS are formed from 1 parent cell.In 3 GENERATIONS, no.of cells will be 2³ = 8.50% of the cells again UNDERGO 4 generations of mitosis.50% cells = 8×(50/100) = 4 cellscells not undergoing division = 8-4 = 4in 4 mitotic division, number of cells produced from 4 cells = 4×2⁴ = 4×16 = 64total cells = 64+4 = 68 | |
