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 is not representative of endocrine glands?
morpeh [17]

Answer:

" Ducts" is not the representative of endocrine glands.

Explanation:

The secretion of the endocrine glands are directly released into the blood stream . For this reason they can travel long distances and can reach any organ travelling through the blood in the body through different co-ordinate activity. Hence, ducts of the endocrine glands are not present to take their secretion to the target organ. They are mostly vascular in nature and they have intracellular vacuoles or may say granules that can easily store their hormones.

Answer:

There are fewer collagen and elastic fibers in the reticular layer of the dermis as we age, contributing to wrinkling and increased susceptibility to tearing of the skin.  

Explanation:

As we age, environmental damage, such as ultraviolet radiation, and decreased ability of our fibroblasts to renew collagen and elastic fibers make our skin thinner and more vulnerable to mechanical trauma.
