Please assume all ancestors are alive. Cindy, her parents, grand parents, and great-grand parents got together for a family photo. How many people were in the picture?
Cell mitosis is the process by which cells (and viruses) reproduce. Each time mitosis occurs, the cell splits in half. When a virus enters your body, you don't notice it because it is small and only one. After several generations, the virus is out of control and causes the cell that it has infected to explode. (30 generations produce over a billion viruses) How many viruses would there be after just 10 generations?
