Which body cell divides more quickly?

Cells in the dermis (skin) divide the fastest. You are always rubbing the top dead layer off and that has to be replaced. An interesting fact: most of the "dust" in your house is skin cells.


What is stem cells-?

Sometimes the bird is able to develop a new migratory pattern, but often the bird will become confused, lost and die as a result. Stem cells are biological cells found in all multicellular organisms, that can divide (through mitosis) and differentiate into diverse specialized cell types and can self-renew to produce more stem cells. www.stem-cell-regeneration.com/about


How often does a cell divide between conception and maturity?

Conception would be the fusing together of the sperm and the egg so I assume you are taking about after conception and this would be mitosis and this divides once and continues to divide and divide until it makes a zygote and divides even more to form an embryo and the embryo implants into the uterus lining Hope this helped


Which is a reason cells divied?

Cells divide because when your body grows, the cells dont grow with you they divide to make more


Why do skin cells divide more often than other cells?

1st of all red blood cells don't reproduce. They are not true cells because they dont contain a nucleus thus do not contian the genetic material needed for reproduction thus do not go through the cell cycle. They are just convex shaped carriers of hemoglobin(which in turn carry oxygen). They only live for about 40 days and new ones are made by cells in your bone marrow. Skin cells are real/normal cells. Skin cells divide/replicate more than normal cells because they are exposed to rough conditions( UV light, dehydration, overhydration,scarring and brusing) so many are killed that out body has to make new ones to replace old ones at a fast rate.

Why do cells in your stomach and intestine divide so often?

Cells in the stomach and intestine divide frequently to replace old or damaged cells, maintain the integrity of the digestive lining, and support the functionality of the digestive system. This rapid division process ensures that the lining of the stomach and intestine stays healthy and can continue to carry out their vital functions in absorbing nutrients and digesting food.


What happens when cells are given nutrients?

When cells are given nutrients, they metabolize them, and grow and divide to create more cells. If they are not given nutrients, they die.


How can adults gain weight as fat since mature adipose cells don't divide?

Mature adipose cells do not divide to make more cells, but they can get larger. Liposuction removes adipose cells so excessive fat cannot be regained in that area.
