Growth Ignore Cells Repair Genetically Identical Mitosis Important

Mitosis is important for an organism's life for growth and cell replacement, as it increases cell number, repairs tissues, and produces genetically identical cells for asexual reproduction through cloning.

A mitose é importante para o crescimento e substituição celular em organismos, pois aumenta o número de células, repara tecidos e produz células geneticamente idênticas para reprodução assexuada através da clonagem.

Front Mitosis is important in the life of an organism. Give two reasons why.
Back 1. Growth / increase in cell number;
*Ignore growth of cells*
2. Replace cells / repair tissue / organs / body;
*Ignore repair cells*
*Reject bacteria*
3. Genetically identical cells;
'Produces 2 genetically identical cells' does not reach MP1 as well
as MP3
4. Asexual reproduction / cloning;
