There are a number of responses to this question: * If a single-celled organism, then it cannot grow because as the name suggests, it can only grow to one cell. * If there are no centrioles, because the cell cannot produce the spindles neccasary for the chromosomes to line up and so cannot reproduce. * If there is no genetic material (chromosomes/chromatin), because it won't reproduce, because it needs genetic material to make an identical copy and so go through the process of interphase and mitosis to make a new cell and grow.

What happens if cells do not know when to stop dividing?
when cells keep dividing it causes cancer
Do cells that are affected by cancer stop dividing?
no the cells continue to divided thus spreading the new cancer cells
What treatment can help stop cancer cells from dividing?
Chemo
Does cancer start when cells stop growing and dividing?
everybody is born with cancer cell. No cancer does not start when cells have stoped growing and dividing. it is simply because the cancer cells are getting agrrivated witch makes it start.
A scientist is trying to discover a new treatment to stop cancer cells from dividing In the cancer cells which of these processes will stop if the treatment is successful?
Genetic recombination
How do you stop cancer cell from dividing?
"Normal" cells stop dividing when they come into contact with like cells, a mechanism known as contact inhibition. Cancerous cells lose this ability. Pictures of cancer cells show that cancerous cells lose the ability to stop dividing when they contact similar cells.
Do cancer cells show density dependent inhibition?
No, Cancer cells do not realize that they are becoming invasive and therefore keep dividing and eventually metastasize.
How can cancer cells be describe?
dividing out of control .
Does cancer cells have lost the ability to stop dividing?
they do not. In fact, a maligant tumor goes through uncontrolled mitosis, and does not stop reproducing.
Is mitosis a way to stop cancer cells from dividing?
No, mitosis is actually the cause of cancer. Well, unregulated mitosis that is. Cancer is basically uncontrolled cell division.
When cells touch do they stop dividing?
Cells usually stop dividing when they touch one another.
Describe how cancer cells differ from normal cells both structurally and in cell activity?
Cancer cells differ from normal cells structurally as they look majorly clumped with unusual patterns or formations. Cancer cells differ in cell activity compared to normal cells greatly as they are constantly growing and dividing while normal cells do not and stop growing and dividing when touching another cell.
