What Most cells in the adult body are no longer capable of?

Most cells in the adult body are no longer capable of mitosis, meaning they cannot divide and replicate themselves. While certain cells, like skin and blood cells, can regenerate, many specialized cells, such as neurons and muscle cells, have limited or no ability to undergo cell division after maturity. This lack of regenerative capacity can contribute to the challenges of healing and tissue repair in adults.

When you stop growing what happens to your growth plates?

When you stop growing, typically in late adolescence or early adulthood, your growth plates, also known as epiphyseal plates, harden and close. This process, called epiphyseal closure, occurs as cartilage in the growth plates is gradually replaced by bone. Once the growth plates close, they no longer contribute to increases in height, and an individual reaches their final adult stature.


Can all cells in an adult undergo mitotic division at any given time?

No, not all cells are capable of mitotic division in an adult. Certain types of cells, called permanent cells (eg. heart muscle cells and brain cells) can not undergo mitosis in an adult. Another type of cell that cannot undergo mitosis is the mammalian red blood cell - which has no nucleus so cannot divide.

Do you expect the rate of cell division to be higher in an adult or child?

The rate of cell division is typically higher in children than in adults. This is because children are growing and developing rapidly, requiring more cell division to support these processes. As individuals age and reach adulthood, cell division slows down as growth and development stabilize.
