How to calculate how many times a cell would have to split to form 100 trillion cells?

I was just at a lab today, so this is fresh!

A cell splits into 2 new cells everytime it reproduces.
So, I would think 50 trillion times!
50 × 2 = 100
Hope this helped you out!

I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is option A. If your doctor asks you if a tick or mosquito has bitten you recently, she might be trying to figure out if you have contracted a vector-borne pathogen. This pathogen are transmitted by the bite of infected species like mosquitoes, bugs and flies.
