The cells forming permanent tissue to perform a specific function do not divide. Only meristematic cells have the capability to divide.

Why do larger cells divide?
all cells divide cells divide as a way to reproduce, the same way humans have babies and fish lay eggs.
Why the skin cells of an adult must divide?
All cells die at some point. If cells, including skin cells didn't divide, there would be no living skin cells. And that's not good.
Why is mitosis necessary for all living things?
Mitosis involves the splitting of one cell to create two, thus multiplying cells in our body. If cells don't multiply, we don't have enough of them, and we die.
Name all the characterisitics of living things?
living things have cells inside of them, reproduce, repair themselves, grow, breathe, have energy, respond to the enviroment, have a life span and produce wastes.
Which type of cell division occurs in binary fission?
A cell: All cells divide using Binary fission (except for sex cells which use meiosis) plant cells use binary fission (that is how they grow and repair) animal cell use binary fission (also how grow and repair themselves) bacteria use binary fission (this is how they reproduce, they evolve due to genetic mutations that some times occur during binary fission). The only things that don't use this are viruses which aren't cells and aren't even considered living.
Do skin cells divide?
yes. all skin cells divide and divide and divide all over your body.
Do adult skin cells divide?
yes. all skin cells divide and divide and divide all over your body.
When does the cell need to copy the DNA-?
DNA ultimately controls all the cell's functions, so it is necessary to have it in all your cells. Every time your cells divide so that you can grow or repair your body, the DNA needs to duplicate so that it can be in each of your cells.
Why do larger cells divide?
all cells divide cells divide as a way to reproduce, the same way humans have babies and fish lay eggs.
Do all cells grow and divide?
no
Do all cells divide the same?
No
What type of cells that divide usings mitosis?
all cells except for sex cells
Mitosis is a division of what?
All the cells that divide in your body, except for sex cells, which divide through meiosis, divide by mitosis.
Which is true All cells come from other cells During adulthood the body stops producing cells Organs make all of the cells in an organism Cells depend on the brain to divide?
Out of all of those statements, the only true statement is that all cells come from other cells. Cells do not stop producing themselves once one reaches adulthood and organs do not make cells in the body. Also, cells do not depend on the brain to create more cells.
Do all cells the same amount of time to divide?
No. Some cells are larger than others, therefor it will take a longer time for the cells to divide.
What cells do not divide during mitosis?
Germ cells use a similar, but not identical, process to divide known as meiosis. Many adult cells do not divide at all under normal conditions, such as neurons and red blood cells.
Why the skin cells of an adult must divide?
All cells die at some point. If cells, including skin cells didn't divide, there would be no living skin cells. And that's not good.
