<span>The movement along the concentration gradients allows for the cell to maintain homeostasis. Keeping a cell in the proper conditions inside and out allows for it to function properly and carry out the duties that it is required to do as part of its bodily system.</span>
<span>The main reasons why cell division is important in organisms are reproduction, repair and growth. Cell division is necessary in order for life to continue.

The length of the cell cycle is important because it determines how quickly an organism can multiply. For single-celled organisms, this rate determines how quickly the organism can reproduce new, independent organisms. </span><span>Most of the differences in cell cycle duration between species and cells are found in the duration of specific cell cycle phases. DNA replication, for example, generally proceeds faster the simpler the organisms. One reason for this trend is simply that prokaryotic have smaller genomes and not as much DNA to be replicated.</span>
Although there is no attachment, the best answer would be option B.
DNA replication occurs in opposite directions along a strand of DNA.
The leading strand is replicated continuously in the 5' to 3' direction towards the replication fork.
The lagging strand is replicated discontinuously in the 5' to 3' with segments of DNA known as Okazaki fragments.
