depends upon the stage of life
in the embryo, apoptosis, or programmed cell death, occurs as vestigial formations such as a tail or the webbing between fingers and toes develops in to the normal structures such as fingers...or not having a tail. withhout programmed cell death here the structures would not be defined at birth.
a different kind of cell life/ death process is seen in cancerous cells (the go-to example of the necessity of cell death) when transcriptional regulation of the normal processes of the cell go haywire and the cell does not respond to signals from the endocrine or immune system to either die or not grow as fast. if cells do not kill themselves off in these situations, they proliferate and cause a single cancerous cell to grow into a tumor or go metastatic.
hope this helps

∙ 10y agoif cells didn't divide we will not be grow repair nor reproduce.
if instead of dividing if grow larger we will be as small as single celled animals and could not be able to live on our own. the division process is important.

Can all white blood cells attack any kind of pathogen?
No, the white blood cells are divided into many types of specialized cells. The Macrophages, Granulocytes, Natural Killer cells and Dendritic (Lagerhans) cells are part of the immuno response system's first line of defense: Macrophages kill any type of pathogens they recognize as not welcome, while the Neutrophile Granulocytes are experts in bacteria killing. Dendritic cells alert the adaptive immuno response system such as T-cells. Cytotoxic T-cells then kill tissue cells infected by pathogens, and so does Natural Killer cells (but does not touch the pathogens themselves). They do not have to be activated first, but are able to find infected/sick cells by themselves, which makes them effective cancer-killers. Also, by killing infected cells they prevent growth and proliferation of more pathogens in the body. Regulatory-T-cells (suppressor cells) and T-Helper cells does not kill pathogens themselves but regulate the rest of the white blood cells.
What kind of cell kills invading bacteria?
B-cells and T-cells can both kill the invading bacteria. B-cells:- create antibodies which kill the bacteria. T-cells:-attack them directly or call in white blood cells. The T-cells also remember the T-cells also remember the type of bacteria and then protect themselves from that bacteria invading again. I hope this answered your question, and helped you out. :)

Can caffeine kill brain cells?
If you were to take a culture of brain cells on a petri dishand submerge them in a caffeine solution, it probably would. But in people, is drinking coffee going to kill brain cells? No. Even very high amounts would not.
