Why does cell division remain important to an adult organism even after it is fully developed?

Biology
1 answer:
Sloan [31]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Cell division prevents cancers, and is something that in humans and in other adult organisms as well prevents old age.

There are many more complex mechanisms that contribute to old age and cancers, but if cell division slows down an organism reaches the end of its life.

Every set of cells has a limited amount of divisions it can do. literally every organism from the moment of conception is dying.

Imagine that four genes on a single chromosome in a mutant phenotype of Drosophila cross over at half the normal rate as in the
lesantik [10]

We know that frequency of recombination is proportional with the distance between the genes on the chromosome. Therefore when the recombination rate is higher that means the distance between the genes on the chromosome is bigger. If the recombination rate is lower that means the genes are closer to each other on the chromosome. In this case the cross over rate is half the normal rate in the wild-type. That means that on the genetic map the distance between the two genes on the wild type will be twice bigger than the genes of the mutated Drosophila.
