It does all of these things. Growth, duplication of cell organelles, chromosome replication, repair of chromosomal errors.

Do eukaryotic cells undergo mitosis?

Your cells die frequently. In order to replenish this loss, cells must replicate themselves.


Is the role of centrosomes necessary for mitosis?

Yes, because in order for things to grow, (humans), cells have to divide to make new ones


Why are skin undergoing mitosis regularley?

Skin cells die very quickly. Mitosis needs to occur regularly in order for the skin to regenerate and continue to protect vital organs in the body and help with survival.


Why do cells undergoes mitosis?

Cells undergo mitosis because there must be a process in which the nucleus is divided in order for there to be a successful reproduction for cells. No mitosis, no cell reproduction.


What is the order of fertilization sex cells meiosis zygote mitosis?

The order would be: Meiosis -> sex cells -> fertilization -> zygote -> mitosis Meiosis creates sex cells, called gametes, which combine during fertilization to create a zygote. The zygote then undergoes mitosis.


Why doesnt mitosis alone produce daughter cells?

Mitosis alone does not produce daughter cells because the cytoplasm has to divide. This is called cytokinesis and it happens at the end of telophase.


Why is DNA replication important to the cell cycle?

Because with mitosis, you are copying the original organism exactly. Meaning you can't take cells directly from the original without losing cells or DNA. By replicating them, they are copying the original without compromising it. It's spelled LOSE not LOOSE


Why do cells go through reproduction or mitosis?

Mitosis: Cells undergo mitosis to replace dead cells. If there is/are cell(s) absent in any part of the body, mitosis occurs to replace the missing cell(s). So basically, if an organism is able to keep all its cells from being harmed in any way, mitosis will never be required as no cell will need replacement. Meiosis: Cells undergo meiosis to form gametes (sex cells). These cells are able to fuse with the opposite gamete in order to fertilize and create offsprings. If meiosis did not occur, the continuity of any species that reproduced sexually would be in jeopardy. Because meiosis occurs and gametes form, individuals become fertile and are able to produce offsprings in order to continue their species.


What represents the phases of mitosis in the order they occur?

prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase


How is mitosis important for a developing baby?

Mitosis is the process of cells dividing, making more cells. As more mitosis occurs, more cells are made, and thus, the organism as a whole grows.


Why are chromosome copied before mitosis?

After Mitosis, the result is 2 new, identical, daughter cells. In order for each to be identical, the chromosomes must be copied.
