During arithmetic growth, if the initial length of a plant organ is L0L_0 and the growth rate is constant (rr), the length after time tt (LtL_t) is expressed as:

  1. A.Lt = L0 * e^(rt)
  2. B.Lt = L0 + rtCorrect answer
  3. C.W1 = W0 * e^(rt)
  4. D.L0 = Lt + rt

Solution

In arithmetic growth, following mitotic cell division, only one daughter cell continues to divide while the other differentiates and matures. The mathematical expression is Lt=L0+rtL_t = L_0 + rt.
