Meristematic Tissue
Tissues are made from cells. Elimination of worn-out bits and pieces is preceded by the 'introduction' of new cells. New cells are produced by the process called cell division, and this happens by the process known as mitosis.
Mitosis
The type of cell division used for growth is called mitosis. In mitosis, a single cell divides to produce two identical daughter cells, each with the same number of chromosomes as the parent cell. This process is essential for both growth and repair of tissues in multicellular organisms.
A liver cell would perform mitosis, not meiosis. Mitosis is the process by which somatic (body) cells divide to produce two genetically identical daughter cells, which is essential for growth, repair, and maintenance of tissues. Meiosis, on the other hand, occurs only in germ cells to produce gametes (sperm and eggs) and involves two rounds of division, resulting in four genetically diverse cells.
Plant meristems produce new cells through cell division. The cells in the meristem divide actively, allowing for growth and development in plants. This process is essential for maintaining and replenishing the pool of undifferentiated cells in plant tissues.
The body uses mitosis for growth, repair, and maintenance of tissues. Mitosis allows cells to divide and produce exact copies of themselves, ensuring that the body's cells have the correct number of chromosomes.
All somatic cells undergo mitosis to divide and produce new cells. These include cells in tissues such as skin, muscle, and organs. On the other hand, germ cells undergo meiosis to produce gametes (eggs and sperm).
The cell division of body cells where an identical cell is formed is called mitosis. During mitosis, a parent cell divides to produce two daughter cells that are genetically identical to the parent cell. This process is essential for growth, repair, and maintenance of tissues in multicellular organisms.

Tissues are made from cells. Elimination of worn-out bits and pieces is preceded by the 'introduction' of new cells. New cells are produced by the process called cell division, and this happens by the process known as mitosis.
Cells that undergo the process of mitosis are somatic cells, which make up the majority of the body's tissues and organs. These cells divide to produce new cells for growth, repair, and maintenance. On the other hand, germ cells, which are involved in reproduction, do not undergo mitosis but instead undergo meiosis to produce gametes.
Most mitosis in plants occurs in the meristematic tissues, such as the apical meristem at the tips of roots and shoots, and the lateral meristem in cambium tissues. These regions contain undifferentiated cells that continuously undergo cell division to produce new cells for growth and development.
The cells that do not undergo mitosis are sex cells, also known as gametes, such as sperm and egg cells. These cells undergo a different type of cell division called meiosis to produce reproductive cells.
Mitosis
Mitosis produce somatic cells,In the sense that it produces cells in the body. However, mitosis does not complete the cell multiplying process. It is the second stage.
Two cells are produced from one cell by mitosis .
The cells that do not go through mitosis are sex cells, also known as gametes. These cells undergo a different type of cell division called meiosis to produce eggs and sperm.
