Cells that reproduce constantly without stopping are known as "immortal" cells. These cells can divide indefinitely due to mechanisms such as the activation of telomerase, which maintains telomere length, allowing them to bypass the normal limits of cell division. Examples include cancer cells and certain stem cells, which can proliferate continuously under specific conditions. These characteristics make them valuable for research and therapeutic applications, but also pose challenges in cancer treatment.
What else can I help you with?
Is it you or your DNA that reproduces?
You reproduce, but your DNA replicates. DNA is constantly being copied in your cells - when cells divide, the new cells contain DNA which was synthesized in the original cell. When you reproduce, it is your DNA (genes) which you pass on to your offspring. Without DNA, you would not be able to reproduce. One half of your chromosomes (23 chromosomes) are contained in the gamete (sex cell) that you provide for sexual reproduction. These chromosomes are passed on to your offspring when you reproduce.
Do epithelial cells reproduce fast?
Skin cells reproduce faster than other types of cells
How do plant and animal cells reproduce?
Plant cells reproduce through mitosis, where a mother cell divides to produce two genetically identical daughter cells. Animal cells also reproduce through mitosis, but can also undergo meiosis for sexual reproduction to produce gametes (sperm and egg cells) with half the genetic material.
Is meiosis constantly occurring?
Meiosis occurs only in specific cells, such as reproductive cells in plants and animals. It is not constantly occurring in all cells in the body.
Why do your skin cells constantly fall off your skin?
Because it is constantly producing more skin cells
Why are youre skin cells continuously undergoing mitosis?
Bacteria is constantly forming on the outer layer of your skin. It is looking for a way to invade your body. Your body reacts by simply throwing away the outer layer of your skin. It does that a cell at a time, but it does it constantly. Those cells must be replaced. To do that, the cells underneath must constantly reproduce and create new skin cells.
Do your brain cells reproduce?
No. Nerve cells do not reproduce.
Is it you or your DNA that reproduces?
You reproduce, but your DNA replicates. DNA is constantly being copied in your cells - when cells divide, the new cells contain DNA which was synthesized in the original cell.

How do eukaryotes cells reproduce?
Cells can reproduce through mitosis and meiosis.
Where do the new cells reproduce?
the cells reproduce where they are located, and the stratum basale is where the are, next to the stem cells.
What two things all cells have?
Cells must have two things: DNA and ribosomes. Without DNA, the cells cannot reproduce. Without ribosomes, proteins cannot be made or sent to other parts of the cell.
What are the processes in which cells reproduce?
Eukaryotic cells reproduce by means of mitosis and cytokinesis.
How often do intestinal cells reproduce?
Intestinal cells reproduce frequently. In the colon the cells reproduce about once every 3 to 4 days. In the small intestine the cells reproduce about once a week.
Do epithelial cells reproduce fast?
Skin cells reproduce faster than other types of cells
Can animal cells reproduce?
They reproduce by dividing.
What is a differents of sexual and asexual reproduction?
many plants can reproduce without sperm cell and and egg cells
What are proteins and why are the useful to your body?
Without them you will die. They allow cells to reproduce and they also help you grow tall.
