What enable cells to reproduce and manufacture the proteins that are necessary for maintaining life?

Cells are able to reproduce and manufacture proteins due to their genetic material (DNA). DNA contains the instructions for making proteins, which are carried out by the cell's machinery, such as ribosomes and enzymes. Through the process of DNA replication and protein synthesis, cells can reproduce and maintain their vital functions.


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.


What intermediate organism can only reproduce in living cells?

Viruses are the intermediate organisms that can only reproduce in living cells since they lack the cellular machinery necessary for replication. They infect a host cell, take over the cell's machinery to replicate, and then release new viruses to infect other cells.
