How long does it take for normal cells to divide?

20 minutes


How long does it take for one parent cell to become two daughter cells?

In humans, rapidly dividing cells, such as skin and gut divide as often as once per day. Other cells such as brain and nerve tissue divide rarely in an adult.


The population of bacteria in a petri dish doubles every 12 h. The population of the bacteria is initially 500 organisms. How long will it take for the population of the bacteria to reach 800 Round yo?

2.5 hours is 150 minutes. So it will have doubled 15 times. 2^15 = 32768 bacteria after 2.5 hours.


How long can bacteria live in rain water for?

Bacteria live for about 20 minutes then they divide into two bacteria by binary fission.


What is the role of bacteria in the environment?

Bacteria are the unicellular organisms and cannot be seen with naked eye. There is no particular method of cell division, they simply divide simply by binary fission in which cell divides into two daughter cells. They do no have proper nucleus within the cell but the genetic material is attached to the cell membrane in an irregular form. They are found everywhere like top of the mountains, rivers, on land and in ice. Bacteria have the property of living in extreme weathers like extreme cold and extreme heat. They are able to live long because they become inactive for a long period of time.

Nostoc is a blue green bacteria algae in which cells grow in chains If each cell is measured as being 20 micrometers long how many cells would it take to make a chain 1 millimeter long?

There are 1000 micrometers to a millimeter. Our bacterium is 20 micrometers long. Divide 20 into 1000. (Do you really need more advice? ok. 1000/20 = 50) __________________________ yep, 50 cells to make a chain 1 millimetre long. that's tiny!

all living cells, except sperm and egg cells until they join. Also some cells take a very long while to divide

What is the inflammatory cells making a tubercle?

A tubercule is an inflammatory nodule; most commonly this is in response to an intracellular bacteria (such as Mycobacterium) that the body is unable to get rid of. The inflammatory cells associated with the tubercule are macrophages (large cells that are trying to eat and break down the bacteria but are unable to) and fibroblasts (long spindly cells that are trying to make a shell of scar tissue to contain the bacteria).


Why don't all cells divide at the same rate?

Nerve cells can take approx. 60 years to divide Red Blood cells can take approx. 120 days to divide. White Blood cells can take 1 day to 10 years. Platelet cells take about 6 days to divide. Cancer cells don't take very long to divide.

How would you divide a long term goal?

Decide what your long-term goal will be - then divide it into manageable short-term goals to achieve your aim.

How long does it take for cells to divide?

In most mammals it takes almost 24 hours for a cell to divide. With species with shorter life spans it can take as little as 5-8 hours for the cell to divide.
