Why is it possible to carry out karyotyping only on cells that are about to divide?

Karyotype analysis is performed in cells undergoing mitosis, or cell division, in which the chromosomes condense and can be stained and visualized.

Why human red blood cells are not suitable for karyotyping?
The karyotype is the number and appearance of chromosomes in the nucleus of a cell. Mature red blood cells don't have a nucleus, so they cannot be used for karyotyping.
Before a normal cell becomes too large to carry out normal activities it will divide to form what?
Before a normal cell becomes too large to carry out normal activities it will divide to form two daughter cells. This cell division is called mitosis.
Do endothelial cells divide?
Yes, endothelial cells divide. It is important that these cells divide to replace old/dead cells and to create new blood vessels.
is a reason cells divide?
The cells divide into two daughter cells, to make way for replication.
Why do somatic cells divide?
Somatic cells divide in order for organisms to grow and replace the cells that die.

What types of human sample are routinely used for karyotyping?
Most karotyping is done on embryonic or fetal cells.
How do you explain how mitosis makes it possible for a cell to divide into two genetically identical cells?
Ok so if you were asking this question well i would say the cells divide into equally developed cells. ok thanks for your time :) signed, Elisabeth
When we grow do our cells grow or divide?
Cells divide.
Before a normal cell becomes too large to carry out normal activitiesit will usually divide to form two?
daughter cells
Do skin cells divide?
yes. all skin cells divide and divide and divide all over your body.
How do the blood cells carry food?
blood cells do not carry food, blood cells carry oxygen.
Do endothelial cells divide?
Yes, endothelial cells divide. It is important that these cells divide to replace old/dead cells and to create new blood vessels.

Before a normal cell becomes too large to carry out normal activities it will divide to form two daughter cells. This cell division is called mitosis.
Do adult skin cells divide?
yes. all skin cells divide and divide and divide all over your body.
is a reason cells divide?
The cells divide into two daughter cells, to make way for replication.
How is cancer related to meiosis?
Mitosis is a form of cell division. Cancer is a mutation in cell division, generally in such a way that cell divide too often and are unregulated and end up developing a mass. Those cells also carry the mutation and those cells divide and create new mutated cells, on and on and on.
