When you are injured, your body produces cells that heal the wound. All of the growth of your body is also a result of new cells produced by cell reproduction. Normally the cells produced for repair and growth are produced by mitosis.:)

Under what condition are muscle cells produces?

Muscle cells are produced during development in the embryo from stem cells called myoblasts. Muscle growth can also occur through exercise or injury, where satellite cells are activated to differentiate into new muscle cells.


Why does your body go through mitosis?

Your body does not go through mitosis, but rather your cells do. The cells in your body go through mitosis to reproduce. This is how non-sex cells, or somatic cells make more of themselves. Sex cells do not go through mitosis, but instead go through meosis.


Why do cell enter into meiosis?

Cells enter mitosis to reproduce and grow more cells.


Why do bacteria and viruses make us feel ill?

Viruses often create toxins which cause symptoms. Even in the absence of toxins, the immune system in the body flares up to fight the invaders, and that causes a lot of the symptoms. One particularly nasty thing that viruses do is to take over healthy cells. They enter the cells and reprogram the DNA to produce more virus cells.


When do cells split into two cells?

It's all part of a cell's life. The cell must split to reproduce. When the cells in your body split, you grow or they replace other dead cells. Reproduction is necessary for sustaining a living organism or population.


Does the human body have more bacterial or human cells?

it has more human cells actually the human body has more bacterial cells. Although it may seem more likely that the human body would have more human cells than bacterial cells. -Vasillisa


What are normal circumstances where your bodies need to make more cells?

Normal circumstances where the body needs to make more cells include growth during childhood and adolescence, healing from injuries, and replacing old or damaged cells in tissues and organs. Additionally, the immune system may produce more cells to fight off infections or illnesses.


Do older cells die after they reproduce?

Assuming you are referring to human cells, the answer is "not exactly." Cells reproduce by division, so if "it" died after reproduction, it and its reproduced self would both have to die. The average cell will divide about 50 times before dying by "self-programmed cell death." Remember that if one cell divides, it makes 2 cells. If 2 divide, they make 4, etc. Thus, if one cell divides 50 times in this way, the result is about 1,125,899,907,000,000 "daughter" cells from one original cell before it is programmed to die. Some cells will die sooner if damaged, or will be destroyed by the body if defective. Mammals have numerous cells and there are many types of cells.For example # skin # brain # mascle etc. On your skin, many cells reproduce about 2mm deep in your body and very surface of your skin are dead cells. In your brain, almost none cells reproduce and only die. In your mascle tissues, cells die and your body repair damaged cells. Died cells are recycled to reproduce mascle tissues. Animals do not die with many cells dying because they have much more cells than those(ie. dead cells are much less than all of the cells in your body in terms of proportion). The answer to your question is ''That depends on what cell you refer to''.  If you refer to a monad (a single cell life), your question is exactly true; otherwise they goes extinct.


How do body cells make more body cells?

Cells produce more cells with cell division or the cell cycle. "IPMATC" = interphase, prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase, and cytokinesis. these are the steps of the cell cycle. Here is a link that explains the whole cycle step by step:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PR9irHLGZQg
