Please Show All Steps:
Consider the following characteristic growth curve for chondrocytes in vitro, as well as the diagram for a tissue-engineered cartilage construct: a. It is generally thought that chondrocytes can undergo only a tenfold expansion in ex vivo culture. Given this information, what is the minimal number of chondrocytes required to grow the graft pictured at a final density of 1x10^6 cells/cm^3? Calculate the amount of time that it would take to end with the final therapeutic cell number, given your starting population of cells.Explanation / Answer
the graph is exponential.starting number of population can be obtained by obtaineg the slope.y=2857.14x
starting population at 350 hours will produce 1*10^6 population of cell. it needs 250 hours more.
