Question

A student examines a thin section of an onion-root tip and records the number of cells that are in each stage of the cell cycle. She observes 94 cells in interphase, 14 cells in prophase, 3 cells in prometaphase, 3 cells in metaphase, 5 cells in anaphase, and 1 cell in telophase. If the complete cell cycle in an onion-root tip requires 22 hours, what is the average duration of each stage in the cycle? Assume that all cells are in the active cell cycle (not Go).

Answer 1

Answer:

Hope this may be ur answer

Explanation:

The answer is 0.92 hour, which is the average duration in an hour of anaphase in the cycle. The information required to answer the problem is the average duration of each stage of the cell cycle.
