The cell cycle is the process by which a single cell replicates itself. A student investigates whether cell growth during the cell cycle is linear or exponential. The table at left gives the length, in micrometers, of an S. pombe (yeast) cell at different times after the cell cycle begins. Which of the following best describes the relationship between time and length of this cell?

The question is incomplete. the complete question is as follows:

The cell cycle is the process by which a single cell replicates itself. A student investigates whether cell growth during the cell cycle is linear or exponential. The table at the left gives the length, in micrometers, of an S. pombe (yeast) cell at different times after the cell cycle begins. Which of the following best describes the relationship between time and length of this cell?  

A.  It is linear because the length increases by the same factor every 10 minutes.

B.  It is linear because the length increases by the same number of micrometers every 10 minutes.

C.  It is exponential because the length increases by the same factor every 10 minutes.

D.  It is exponential because the length increases by the same number of micrometers every 10 minutes.

C.  It is exponential because the length increases by the same factor every 10 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the data shown, the relationship between time and length of this cell is exponential.

The relationship is exponential because the length increases by the same factor every 10 minutes.

The growth of the cell is exponential it means the optimal conditions are provided to the cell for their growth.

Hence, the correct answer is "C.  It is exponential because the length increases by the same factor every 10 minutes."

your answer would be 10x - 1
