After 24 hours, there will be 8 copies of cell A and 6 copies of cell B.

WHAT IS CELL DIVISION?

Cell division is the process by which a living cell replicates or multiplies itself.

According to this question, Cell A takes 6 hours to complete division. Cell B takes 8 hours to complete division.

Each cell division results into 2 identical daughter cells. This means that after 24 hours;

  • Cell A = 24/6 = 4 times × 2 cells = 8 copies
  • Cell B = 24/8 = 3 times × 2 cells = 6 copies

Therefore, after 24 hours, there will be 8 copies of cell A and 6 copies of cell B.
