A cell determines whether to undergo division at what are called checkpoints in the cell cycle. The activity of genes required to undergo the next stage in cell cycle is checked at these checkpoints by factors called cyclins and are aided by Cyclin-dependent kinases (Cdks), a type of enzymes.
Stem cells are cells that are able to divide continuously without specializing. These kind of cells are undifferentiated biological cells.
When cells divide continuously and out of control, it can lead to the formation of a tumor. This uncontrolled cell division is a hallmark of cancer and can result in the spread of cancerous cells to other parts of the body through a process known as metastasis. Early detection and treatment are crucial in managing this abnormal cell growth.
yes, cells grow to an enlarged size and divide into two small cells (which each enlarge and divide as well). but the larger cells get, the more difficult it is for them to function and operate, so they remain within certain size boundaries, getting large enough to divide and halving, large enough to divide and halving.
One of the major aspects of life is self replication, or reproduction. If cells didn't divide, then populations of organisms would not form, and evolution would be impossible. The more proximate cause is that as cells grow and ingest food, there is a limit to how big they can become before the cell wall no longer supports the cytoplasm. At or before this point, the cell must divide or it will lyse (split open) and die.
the answer is that i dont know
Cells divide.
i dont know.. Ask someone who knows!
yes. all skin cells divide and divide and divide all over your body.
There are numerous reasons why cells divide. If someone skins their leg, for example, cells will divide for the purpose of replacing cells that have been damaged.
If cells do not divide properly, then many problems can occur, cancer cells for example.
cells divide because of: -growth -development -repair
Nerve cells, also known as neurons, do not divide.
It is called mitosis when regular cells divide. It is called meiosis when sex cells divide.
They divide.
Not completely sure, I do know that they divide so they don't get too big.
When studying cells it is important to know the name for the different stages the cells go through. The G2 phase, or pre-mitotic phase is when the cell prepares to divide.
Examples of cells that divide rapidly after maturity include skin cells, intestinal cells, and blood cells. Examples of cells that do not divide at all after maturity include neurons and cardiac muscle cells.
