Growth, development, and repair.
Cell division allows organisms to grow and develop by increasing the number of cells in their bodies. It also enables tissue repair and regeneration, allowing damaged or dead cells to be replaced. Additionally, in multicellular organisms, cell division is essential for reproduction through processes like meiosis, which produces gametes.

Multicellular organisms
Cells that are specialized in multicellular organisms means they do many things. This is what helps the body function.
For multicellular organisms (like us) cell division allows an organism to grow and develop from a single cell to trillions of cells, to repair and replace cells worn out and used up by everyday life, and in some cases, to make specialized cells for reproduction. or, to make it more easy to understand, in multicellular living things, cell division is required for tissue repair and growth. :)
Multicellular organisms
A cell is building blocks of both unicellular and multicellular organisms. All living things are made up of cells.
Multicellular organisms are made up of more than one cell. They include things like animals and plants. Humans are also multicellular.
Simple multicellular living things are often referred to as "multicellular organisms," which are made up of more than one cell but are structurally and functionally less complex compared to more advanced multicellular organisms. Examples include certain algae, some fungi, and simple animals like sponges.
Cell division allows living organisms to grow by increasing the number of cells, enabling the development of tissues and organs. It facilitates repair and regeneration by replacing damaged or dead cells. Additionally, cell division is essential for reproduction, allowing for the creation of new organisms through processes like mitosis and meiosis.
Almost all multicellular organisms belong to the domain Eukarya. This domain includes organisms with cells that have a true nucleus and membrane-bound organelles. Examples of multicellular organisms in the domain Eukarya include plants, animals, fungi, and protists.
A cat is multicellular. Multicellular organisms have more than two cells. A multicellular organism is one that can be seen without the need of a microscope.
