Usually, only eukaryotes, such as the human cell, go through mitosis, and because most bacteria, prokaryotes, are single celled organisms, there's usually no need to go through all the complexities of mitosis, when they could just split and reform itself into its own duplicate.

Explain Why the cells of fungi plant and animal would undergo mitosis but bacteria cell would not undergo mitosis?

Cells of fungi, plants, and animals undergo mitosis to produce new cells for growth, repair, and asexual reproduction. Unlike eukaryotic cells, bacteria cells do not have a nucleus and follow a different process called binary fission to divide and reproduce. This method involves the replication of the bacterial DNA and subsequent division of the cell into two equal daughter cells.

What types of cells do not undergo mitosis and how do they differ from cells that do undergo mitosis?

Certain types of cells, such as nerve cells and muscle cells, do not undergo mitosis. These cells are considered to be in a state of permanent growth arrest, known as "terminal differentiation." Unlike cells that undergo mitosis, these non-dividing cells do not replicate or divide to create new cells.


Do bones undergo mitosis?

No, bones do not undergo mitosis. Bone cells, such as osteoblasts and osteoclasts, are formed through a process called osteogenesis from stem cells. Once bones are fully formed, they do not undergo cell division like mitosis.
