Although it varies depending on a cell (some cells never undergo mitosis), a typical cell goes through mitosis when all its organelles have been replicated, its size doubled, and its DNA copied. When all this is finished, the cell condenses its DNA and begins prophase, the first phase of mitosis.
A typical cell is in mitosis only about 10% of the times, because the rest of 90% the cell is in interphase, where it goes through normal cell functions instead of dividing.
What else can I help you with?
Which cells would you expect mitosis to occur more often teeth or skin and why?
Mitosis would occur more often in skin cells than in teeth cells. This is because skin cells undergo constant regeneration to replace old or damaged cells, whereas teeth cells do not undergo regular cell turnover like skin cells.
How is aging related to mitosis?
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.
Where in your body does mitosis occur most often?
mitosis occurs most often in the skin where cells die frequently and blood since red blood cells die everyday. Areas such as the brain where cells last way longer and don't get damaged is where mitosis occurs the least
What role does mitosis play in the formation of a tumor?
Mitosis regards the division and multiplication of cells. A tumor is the uncontrolled mitosis and often dangerous massing and spreading (malignancy) of mutated cells. Tumors can be benign or cancerous, and can only be diagnosed through medical pathology.
Which occurs more frequently in your body mitosis or meiosis?
Mitosis occur more frequently in our body. Basically mitosis occur when we get an injury or is an asexual type of reproduction. It occurs at the time of cell division and our cells need to divide often. While meosis is form of sexual reproduction and it does not occur quite often . Also, meiosis occurs more in men than in women. Look at it this way Mitosis splits once as meosis splits twice and they're not identical

What cells undergo mitosis in humans?
Somatic cells in the body undergo mitosis in humans, including skin cells, blood cells, and cells in the digestive system. These cells go through mitosis for growth, repair, and maintenance of tissues in the body.
What are the two daughter cells of mitosis?
All somatic (body) cells at one point or another are involved in mitosis. The only cells that do not undergo mitosis, are the sex cells, sperm and ovum cells. Every body cell from liver to nerve cells undergo mitosis at least once. Though some undergo mitosis more often than other, skin cells for example almost constantly undergoing mitosis, while some cells like nerve cells, undergo mitosis only once or twice.
How often do nerve and muscle cells divide?
Muscles cells can undergo mitosis, but almost all nerve cells will not. This is true within the body and even when isolated and put into culture.
What types of cells divide the least often?
Answer: The internal lining of your digestive tract. Explanation: The internal lining of your digestive tract receives a lot of wear and tear. As a result, cells that line your stomach and intestine are replaced every few days. In contrast, cells that make up the rest of your intestine (mainly smooth muscle) and many of your internal organs, such as lungs, kidney, and liver, divide only occasionaly, in respons to injury or cell death.

What happens when mitosis stops?
Yes, certain cells such as your brain and skeletal muscle cells stop cell division at or around the time of birth and are arrested in a phase of interphase called G0where they no longer divide.
Why does a skin cell divide more often than liver cell?
As far as I know, liver cells usually only undergo mitosis if the liver is damaged. You should check a few other sources though.
How often does mitosis happen in a bone cell?
Mitosis in bone cells, specifically osteocytes, occurs less frequently compared to other cell types due to their specialized function and stable nature. Bone remodeling, which includes the division of osteoblasts and osteoclasts, happens continuously but at a slow rate, typically taking weeks to months for significant changes. Overall, while bone cells can undergo mitosis, it is not a rapid or frequent process like in other rapidly dividing tissues.
