This is because the cells we need for reproduction need to be genetically different from those of the rest of the body.

Cellular reproduction

When a mother cell divides into two or more daughter cells, this process is known as cell division.  Cell division frequently takes place as a component of a longer cell cycle. There are two different types of cell division in eukaryotes: a vegetative division (mitosis), in which each daughter cell inherits the genetic makeup of the parent cell, and a reproductive division (gametogenesis), in which the number of chromosomes in the daughter cells is cut in half to produce haploid gametes (meiosis).  In cell biology, the process of mitosis, during which replicated chromosomes are split into two new nuclei, is a stage of the cell cycle. The number of chromosomes is maintained in the genetically identical cells produced by cell division.

How would the solar eclipse be different if the moon was moved AWAY from the earth?​
GuDViN [60]

Answer:

The Sun is completely blocked in a solar eclipse because the Moon passes between Earth and the Sun. Even though the Moon is much smaller than the Sun, because it is just the right distance away from Earth, the Moon can fully blocks the Sun’s light from Earth’s perspective. Sometimes the Moon is far enough away that it doesn't create a total solar eclipse. However, once the Moon's growing orbit takes it approximately 14,600 miles (23,500 km) farther away from Earth, it will always be too far away to completely cover the Sun. That won't happen for a long time though.
