What cause's cell division

Biology

Aleks [24]2 years ago

Cells divide for many reasons. For example, when you skin your knee, cells divide to replace old, dead, or damaged cells. ... When organisms grow, it isn't because cells are getting larger. Organisms grow because cells are dividing to produce more and more cells.

Answer:

Explanation:

Cells in an organism go through division all the time. One reason is for growth. As an organism grows, more cells are created. Cells divide instead of grow because there is an optimal size for cell. So it is more efficient to create new cells.

Second reason for cell division is to repair damaged cells. Some cells like skin cells are damaged routinely and cell division is the way to repair and replace damaged cells.

Last reason is for reproduction. All organisms use cell division to reproduce.

IceJOKER [234]
  <span>Neutral mutations are neither harmful nor beneficial. 

Therefore, they are invisible to natural selection. (Since they neither improve nor worsen one individual's chances of survival and reproduction over another.) 

However neutral mutations can still spread into the population by just random replications and matings. This is called genetic drift. 

In other words, they are 'silent'. They are mutations that exist and propagate in populations, but seem to have no effect at all. 

The reason they can become important to evolution is that a day can come when they *do* have an effect. In other words, even though an individual mutation may have no immediate effect on survival or reproduction, a *combination* of neutral mutations may provide some new benefit or harm ... at which point natural selection *will* act on that combination.
