Mitosis a process more simply explained as regeneration of cells, as it is most significant in that process. The cells of our body replicate (clone themselves) as needed. For instance, if you cut your hand, the skin cells will regenerate in the process of mitosis, and so will all cells, except those of reproductive cells which use meiosis. To answer your question: our skin endures micro damage all the time and as regeneration is performed in mitosis, it also occurs all the time.

When do you see mitosis?

Mitosis, or the splitting and replication of cells, occurs all the time in the human body. It is hard to observe unless there are special conditions.


How many times does mitosis happen in a day?

The number of times mitosis occurs in a day depends on the specific type of cell and its growth rate. In rapidly dividing cells, such as those in the bone marrow, skin, or intestinal lining, mitosis can occur multiple times per day. In general, human cells undergo mitosis on average once a day.


What is more common in humans meiosis or mitosis?

Mitosis occurs in our somatic cells and Meiosis occur in our reproductive cells, gametes Most of the time our body is under the influence of mitosis which replace the old and worn out cells with new one's whereas the Meiotic type of division occurs at a specific time in the life of an organism's development. The chromosome number in mitotic division remains the same whereas in meiotic division the chromosomes number is halved


Does condensation of the chromosomes occur during mitosis?

Yes, condensation of the chromosomes occurs during mitosis. This process involves the chromosomes becoming more tightly coiled and condensed to facilitate segregation of genetic material into the daughter cells.


How manybones are there in the human body?

206 if it is a human bone, or 305 it is a child's bone. Usually the bones turn into dust in a certain period of time that it has not served a function in the human body, so the dusterization of the human body or "how many dead bodies are in the human body" is a depending question.

In a human body give an example of a where mitosis may occur Give an example of where meiosis would occur?

Mitosis occurs in somatic cells to generate new cells for growth and repair throughout the body. For example, mitosis occurs in skin cells to replace old or damaged skin cells. Meiosis occurs in reproductive cells to produce gametes (sperm and eggs). For example, meiosis occurs in the testes to produce sperm cells in males and in the ovaries to produce egg cells in females.


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


Can mitosis and meiosis occur at the same time?

No, mitosis and meiosis are two distinct cellular processes that cannot occur simultaneously in the same cell. Mitosis is involved in somatic cell division for growth and repair, while meiosis is specific to the formation of gametes (sex cells) for sexual reproduction.

What would happen if mitosis did not occur?

If mitosis didn't occur, any part of a living being where cells are destroyed (stomach, kidneys etc) for whatever purpose, would cease to function after a relatively short amount of time (a few years at best, depending on the amount of cells that part normally has). A living being's body parts would also never grow. They would stay the same size since they were born. The only upside is that, without mitosis, cancer wouldn't occur.
