After four successive mitotic divisions of a cell, arithmetic growth pattern of the total number of cells that have lost the ability of cell division is /are __________

- A 1
- B 2
- C 3
- D 4
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(D) 4
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
In arithmetic growth, rate of the growth is constant. After mitosis, one of the daughter cell continues to divide and the other cell takes part in the differentiation and maturation. So, after 4 mitotic divisions the total count of cells that have lost the ability of cell division will be \(1+1+1+1=4\).
