How many generations of mitosis are required to produce 128 cells from a single cell of a root tip?
Explanation
Each generation of mitosis produces 2 cells; therefore, each consecutive rounds would produce twice as many cells as they started with:
Generation 1 = 2 cells
Generation 2 = 4 cells
Generation 3 = 8 cells
Generation 4 = 16 cells
Generation 5 = 32 cells
Generation 6 = 64 cells
Generation 7 = 128 cells
