a mammalian stem cell line has a doubling time of 24 hours. if you start with 350,000 of these cells, approximately how many cells would be present after 60 hours of growth?

Respuesta :

After 60 hours of growth, there is approximately 2 million cells.

Let y represent the number of cell after x hours.

The bacteria doubles every 24 hours, also there are initially 350000 cells hence:

[tex]y=350000(2)^\frac{x}{24}[/tex]

The number of cells after 60 hours is:

[tex]y=350000(2)^\frac{x}{24}\\\\y=350000(2)^\frac{60}{24}\\\\y = 1979899[/tex]

Therefore after 60 hours of growth, there is approximately 2 million cells.
