What are the benefits of cell division in somatic cells?

Biology

Answer:

Somatic cells helps in healing and repairing damaged cells

Explanation:

Somatic cell division plays an important role in division of body cells. They help in healing and repairing the damaged cells. cell division is of two types, Mitosis and meiosis. Mitosis replicates and results in two identical daughter nuclei (genetically identical). Apart from these, they also act as  adult stem cells which plays a major role in healing the damaged cells or repair the damaged cells. somatic cells are found all over your body except the germ cells.

Benefits of cell division in somatic cells:

  1. If you get hurt and eventually your blood will stop oozing out and get healed by the mitotic cell division found in the somatic regions of your body.
  2. Animals like lizards when get hurt, they get their cells automatically repaired by  their somatic cells.

These are few important benefits other than the identical copies that are obtained by cell division.

What theory dramatically improved geologist's ability to predict where certain ore deposits were formed? Select one:
mrs_skeptik [129]

Plate tectonics is referred to a geology theory, which explains the movement of earth’s lithosphere.  This theory suggests that the earth’s lithosphere is made up of many plates, and these plates move on each other causing collision of the plates or sometimes separation of the landmasses.  

Sometimes, the movements of the plate occur in such a way that the surface of the earth is buried underground. Even in normal circumstance, some of the surface materials buried underground. So, by studying the type of things existed on the surface in past, one can predict the abundance of a specific substance underground.  

Hence, the correct answer is option b. – Plate tectonics.
