Cells must reproduce in order for an organism to grow. They do this by mitotic cell division, which is mitosis followed by cytokinesis.

It depends on the microbe. Some are very fussy about what they need and others will feed on just about everything.

Some cells only grow in culture.


A scientist wants to grow human cells to use an experiment. What should the scientist do to grow and maintain cells in the laboratory?

The scientist should prepare a culture of the cells. (apex)


What effect does contact have on cell growth?

When grown in vitro, mammalian cells stop growing when they come into physical contact with other cells. This property of cells in culture is called contact inhibition. This is the reason why cells tend to grow in monolayers in a culture flask.Cancer cells on the other hand, have lost this ability of contact inhibition and therefore tend to over grow

What do you call a group of cells grown in a nutrient solution from a single cell?

Cell culture is a nearly universally used technique to grow material for biological testing. In cell culture, an original population of seed cells divide under tightly controlled conditions to propagate the culture. All of the daughter cells from the original population are clones.

When culturing cells why do researchers prefer cancer cells over healthy cells extracted from an organism?

Cancer cells divide quickly and almost indefinitely. This makes them easy to grow in a dish while tissue culture with healthy cells is almost impossible.


What is the difference between adherent and suspension cultures?

The way a cell behaves in liquid culture depends on the natural environment of that cell type. Hematopoietic stem cells remain floating in the medium when grown in liquid culture and will not attach to the cell culture vessel. This is known as suspension culture. In contrast, stem cells from most of the body's solid tissues will only grow in culture if they are in contact with a solid surface and other cells. These cells are known as adherent and spread out over the bottom of the vessel as they divide.
