The importance of mitotic cell division is to make a greater amount of cells for repair and growth while maintaining the same genetic makeup

MIOTIC CELL DIVISION IS ONLY FOR REPAIR SYSTEM OF CELLS IN BODIES. NOT FOR GENERATIVE PURPOSE.

According to Human Anatomy and Physiology Labratory Manual tenth edition by Elaine N. Marieb and Susan J. Mitchell: page 45 " The function of cell division, including mitosis and cytokenesis in the body, is to increase the number of cells for growth and repair while maintaining their genetic heritage."

Is mitosis occurs in both plants and animals?

Yes, mitosis occurs both in plants, as well as animals. Mitosis is the reproduction of an organism's cells. For example, when a woman who is pregnant waits for her child to be born, mitosis occurs. Same thing with plants. Hope that helped!


What are Examples of plants cells undergoing mitosis?

Well this question is hard. A cell that goes through mitosis would be cells like skin cells, and any other somatic cell. You can also be asking of any practical applications of mitosis. Healing is an example of mitosis, growing is an example of mitosis, even cancer is an example of mitosis.


Is mitosis in plant cells slower or faster than in human cells?

Mitosis in plants cells is faster than in human cell because more localisated. When a human cell do mitosis as a part of all of her life cycle, a meristematic plant cell do only mitosis, without interphasis. So it is faster for plants to do mitosis


How is mitosis different plants and animals?

In both plants and animals, mitosis is a process of cell division that results in two identical daughter cells. However, in plants, there is no centriole formation during mitosis, while in animals, centrioles play a key role in organizing the mitotic spindle. Additionally, plant cells have a rigid cell wall that constrains the process of cytokinesis, resulting in the formation of a cell plate rather than a cleavage furrow as seen in animal cells.


What is the function of acetic acid in mitosis?

Acetic acid (vinegar) is not directly involved in mitosis. Mitosis is a process of cell division that involves the separation of chromosomes to create two identical daughter cells. Acetic acid is more commonly used in laboratory settings for fixing and preserving cells for microscopic examination.
