How is cell division involved in growth development and repair of an organism?

More cells are created, which gives the organism more mass, and the new cells help to replace dead cells.

4 types of events that take place in a eukaryotic organism such as a deer that require cell division?
Life is the perfect example of cell division, with out it life would not exist and evolution would not happen.
What term refers to the organic growth of an organism involving the changes it undergoes from being simple to becoming more complex?
Development
The main purpose of cell division is?
Cell division has three purposes for the organism. The are responsible for the reproduction, growth and maintenance of both single celled and multicellular organisms.
What was Darwin's common descent with ontogeny recapitulates phylogeny?
Growth and development of an organism. As with growth of adding new parts that then change very little.
Why is it important that cell growth in a multi- cellular organism be regulated so carefully?
In multicellular organisms, cell division must be carefully regulated to ensure that growth of the organism is coordinated, replacement of dead cells takes place in an orderly fashion, and repair of injured cells is initiated when needed. Cell division must also be halted when growth and repair are completed. Cell division is controlled by a variety of factors. One of the most important controls is carried out by molecules called growth factors.
What is the difference between growth and development?
in growth the organism gets larger, in development the organism gets more complex
What is the meaning of morphogenesis?
The development of form in an organism during its growth. The evolutionary development of form in an organism or part of an organism. Morphogenetic adj.
How do multi cellular organisms?
Multicellular organisms grow through cell division. A multicellular organism's growth and development start with one cell, which then divides into two cells. The division will continue, with each division increasing by a factor of two.
Cell division is related to which process occurring in an organism?
reproductiongrowthrepair
Do multi cellular organisms grow?
Multicellular organisms grow through cell division. A multicellular organism's growth and development start with one cell, which then divides into two cells. The division will continue, with each division increasing by a factor of two.
What are the difference between growth and development?
Growth refers to physical changes, such as increase in size or weight, while development is a broader term that encompasses physical, cognitive, emotional, and social changes over time. Growth is more measurable and visible, whereas development involves more complex changes in skills, knowledge, and abilities.
How is cell division responsible for growth?
Cell division is responsible for growth because the new cells replace the dead cells in an organism. The new cells keep the organism alive by continuing to the job of the cell that it divided from.
Growth of an organism occurs through what?
Growth in living things occurs primarily from a combination of nutrient intake and genes for growth which are turned "on" (and tend to turn "off" with aging).
The study of the growth and development of an organism during its lifetime is?
developmental anatomy
Are enzymes primary or secondary metabolites?
Primary metabolite because they are directly involved in normal growth, development, and reproduction. In other words, an organism would die without enzymes.
Why is cell division important in multicellular organism?
growth of an organismreplace old cells.. etc
What does hereotrophic mean?
You mean heterotrophic- an organism that needs nutrition for growth and development.
