How long does the cell cycle take for yeast cells?

Options

  1. A24 hours
  2. B90 minutes
  3. C1 hour
  4. D2 days

Correct answer

B. 90 minutes

Step-by-step solution

A typical eukaryotic cell cycle is illustrated by human cells in culture. These cells divide once in approximately every 24 hours. However, this duration of cell cycle can vary from organism to organism and also from cell type to cell type. Yeast for example, can progress through the cell cycle in only about 90 minutes. The cell cycle is divided into two basic phases: Interphase,M Phase (Mitosis phase)
