The answer to this question would be: <span>replacement of old and damaged cells</span>

The mitosis division will result in two cell that identical to the parent. Cell that undergoes mitosis division regularly called the labile cell. One of the labile cell is skin that will continuously divide to replace the dead skin cell. Therefore mitosis is used to replace old or damaged cell so the body can keep its function.

Which one of the following is NOT an example of microbial antagonism?
snow_lady [41]

Answer:

e. bacteria producing vitamin K

Explanation:

Microbial antagonism basically refers as microbes versus microbes i-e the indigenous microflora serve a beneficial role by preventing other microbes from becoming established in or colonizing a particular anatomic location in the body.

As all the options mentioned, refers to the microbial antagonism except option E as the normal microbes protect the host by :

1) Producing acids.

2) Bactreocin production

3) By occupying the niches that the pathogens may occupy.

But the microbes cant compete with other microbes by  producing vitamins and growth factors that can be utilized by the host.

Hence option E is the right answer.

<span>In vitro fertilization
       
Not much to say, the question pretty much defines the technique. The first successful birth via IVF happened with the birth of Louise Brown in 1978. There are some issues with IVF that can cause complications. Among them are multiple births (twins or triplets) due to multiple blastocysts successfully implanting in the woman's uterus.</span>

Ordinary cell division produces two daughter cells that are genetically identical. This type of cell division is important for a
Ratling [72]

Answer:

C) production of sperm and eggs

Explanation:

Sperms and eggs are the male and female gametes respectively. Formation of sperms and egg cells require meiotic cell division. Meiosis in sperm mother cells and egg mother cells reduces the chromosome number of half in the sperms and eggs. Meiosis also adds new gene combinations in these gametes by the process of crossing over.  

Mitosis cannot reduce the chromosome number to half in the sperms and eggs. Absence of crossing over in mitosis leads to the formation of genetically identical progeny cells from mitosis.  

Hence, mitosis can not form sperms and egg cells.  If it does, the sperms and egg cells would not have genetic variations and there would be doubling of chromosome number with each round of sexual reproduction.
