Q. L=6(8.1t) L=6(8.1-t) \newlineA human cell has entered the S S phase and is replicating a chromosome. The remaining length, L L , in millimeters, that needs to be replicated t t hours after the start of a human cell's S S phase is given by the equation. After how many hours has the entire length chromosome been replicated?\newlineChoose 11 answer:\newline(A) 00.1717\newline(B) 66\newline(C) 88.11\newline(D) 4848.66
  1. Given equation: We are given the equation L=6(8.1t)L = 6(8.1 - t) to represent the remaining length of the chromosome to be replicated after tt hours. To find out after how many hours the entire chromosome has been replicated, we need to determine the value of tt when LL equals 00.
  2. Solving for t: Set LL to 00 and solve for tt: \newline0=6(8.1t)0 = 6(8.1 - t)
  3. Isolating the term with t: Divide both sides of the equation by 66 to isolate the term with t:\newline00 = 88.11 - t
  4. Rearranging the equation: Rearrange the equation to solve for tt:t=8.1t = 8.1
  5. Final value of t: The value of tt when the entire chromosome has been replicated is 8.18.1 hours.
