There are two types of cell division that a stem cell ( that is a cell that has just been created and does not have a specific function in the body yet) can undergo.
The first process of cell division that is done by all somatic (that is body cells) cells is called Mitosis. In Mitosis the DNA of a cell duplicates itself and the cell grows until it is large enough to divide. The reason a cell undergoes Mitosis is...
1) Method of Reproduction ( as seen in unicellular organisms)
2) Method of Growth ( in humans is mitosis that allows us to get bigger, as example would be that mitosis allows your skin to grow so you can get taller)
3) Method of Cell replacement ( an example would be if you skinned your arm, mitosis in your skin cells allow for new skin to grow in place of damaged skin.)
The Second process of cell division is called Meiosis. In Meiosis only cells in an organism's reproductive organs ( example is ovary for females) can create cells known as gametes ( which are cells with the half DNA). The only reason sex cells would undergo meiosis is to create gametes that when combined with gametes of the opposite sex create a new being.
1. To create more cells. 2. To further the total organism's development.
The larger a cell becomes, the more demands the cell places on its DNA. In addiction, the wastes across the cell membrane.
1) To create progenitors; and 2) in abundant times to share the wealth.
one way is the larger a cell becomes the more it demands the cell places on its DNA. another reason why is because cell divides into two new daughter cell
That's how they reproduce.
one reason is to reproduce.
so that a multicellular organism can grow and have more cells
the 2MAIN reasons they are resting from chromosomes touching one another to improve once you grow they enlarge there growth of development.
The cells divide into two daughter cells, to make way for replication.
Mitosis and Miosis.
Prokaryotic cells divide by binary fission. The genetic material is separated into two daughter cell after a DNA replication.
so that a multicellular organism can grow and have more cells
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.
cells divide because of: -growth -development -repair
the 2MAIN reasons they are resting from chromosomes touching one another to improve once you grow they enlarge there growth of development.
The cells divide into two daughter cells, to make way for replication.
The cells of a worm divide into two, then those cells divide into two, and so on and on and on.
mitisos are when cells divide into two daughter cells
There are many reasons why cells divide. Here are some of them:* Growth - More cells=bigger organism * Repair - Colon and skin cells, for example, have to be constantly replaced as they are scraped off
It form into two different cells
Mitosis and Miosis.
It is known as budding.
double what the person already had if mitosis is when cells divide into two cells
