Question

What is the expected approximate Mitotic Index for "normal" tissues? [2 pt]

a. 100
b. 75%
c. 50%
d. 25%
e. 10%

Answer 1

e. 10%

Step-by-step explanation:

• The Mitotic Index refers to the proportion of cells undergoing mitosis at a particular time and is expressed as a percentage. The expected approximate Mitotic Index for "normal" tissues is typically low, as most cells are in a non-dividing state. The actual value can vary depending on the tissue type and age of the individual, but a typical range for mitotic index in normal tissues is around 1-10%.
