If cells split in half, and do not die, then you have:
1 --> 2 --> 4 --> 8 ...
20 --> 21 --> 22 --> 23 ...
Ok, so let's assume the first generation has 1 cell...
So the 20th generation would have 219 (2(20-1)) cells.
So you would get 524,288 cells in the 20th generation, or 1,048,576 cells in the 21st generation.
I suppose I might actually take the 1,048,576 number as being the 21st generation is AFTER 20 generations.

If Stating with 3 cells how many cells would you have after 3 generations of divisions?
If you start with 3 cells and assume each cell divides into 2 cells in each generation, you would have 3 cells in the first generation. In the second generation, that would double to 6 cells, and in the third generation, it would double again to 12 cells. Thus, after 3 generations of divisions, you would have a total of 12 cells.
How would you know if a cell was a plant cell and not a root cell?
Root cells are plant cells, but they do not contain chloroplasts like leaf cells.
How many cells can be produced if one cell goes through mitosis and cytokinesis?
Two, because the cell splits itself in half.
What is the ability of a specific immune cell to proliferate and form many generations of nearly identical cells called?
The ability of a specific immune cell to proliferate and form many generations of nearly identical cells is called clonal expansion. During clonal expansion, activated immune cells undergo multiple rounds of cell division, resulting in the production of numerous identical daughter cells that can mount a coordinated immune response against the targeted pathogen or antigen.
How many cells would be produced in 1 week if a cell divided twice a day?
Meiosis 1*2*3*4*5*6*7 = 5040

Why would sugar start to go in a cell if you put them on a plate?
Cells will absorb sugar by means of osmosis.
What cells start with the letter a?
animal Cell!
Are transformed cells capable of passing their newly-acquired traits onto succeeding generations?
Yes, transformed cells have the ability to pass their newly-acquired traits onto succeeding generations. This is because the transformation process often involves integrating foreign genetic material into the cell's genome, which can be inherited by daughter cells during cell division. As a result, the traits conferred by the transformed cells can be maintained and passed on to subsequent generations.
In what form do egg cells start out as?
Germ cell

If a particular type of cell completes one cell cycle in 75 minutes and you start with one cell how many cells would be present after 7.5 hours?
64 Cells. At 75 minutes per cycle, and an allotted time of 7.5 hours there would be enough time for 6 cycles to complete. Cell replication can be represented as 2^X, where X is the number of cycles. Basically meaning that after the first cycle (assuming you are starting with 1 cell) you would have 2 cells, and those 2 cells will multiply exponentially. So the cycles and cell yield would go as follows: Cycle 1: 2 cells 2: 4 cells 3: 8 cells 4: 16 cells 5: 32 cells 6: 64 cells
What cells would form cell plate during the cell cycle?
Cells that contain a cell wall, such as plant cells, form a cell plate to separate cells before the cell wall forms.a prokaryotic
Does cancer start when cells stop growing and dividing?
everybody is born with cancer cell. No cancer does not start when cells have stoped growing and dividing. it is simply because the cancer cells are getting agrrivated witch makes it start.
What type of cell would have cell wall?
Plant cells would have those.
What does point mode in Excel allow you to do?
When typing a formula in Excel, point mode lets you click on a cell or select a range of cells for use in a formula rather than typing their cell references in. This can be useful to make sure the correct cells are being selected or meaning you don't have to check the addresses of the cells to type in. So it can speed up creating formulas.
