You are observing a single cell under a microscope. you go home for the night, and the next day you see four cells. the four cells look similar, and when you stain them with a dye that binds to dna they all appear to contain the same amount of dna as the original cell. what likely happened overnight?

Mitosis (cell division)

Explanation:

The single cell most likely underwent 2 rounds of cell division, the first round being the singe cell dividing via mitosis to give rise to 2 cells. The second round would be the 2 cells each undergoing a round of cell division each to give rise to 2 more cells.

ypc

Answer:

9.9 years

step-by-step explanation:

a = p(1 + rt) . . account balance after time t at rate r starting with principal p

3000 = 2500(1 + 0.0202t) . . filling in the given numbers

1.2 = 1 + 0.0202t . . divide by 2500

0.2 = 0.0202t . . . subtract 1

0.2/0.0202 = t ≈ 9.901

it will take about 9.9 years for the account balance to reach $3000.
