Mitosis is useful for growth, repair, cell differentiation, and reproduction (in unicellular organisms and asexual reproducers).
La mitosi รจ utile per la crescita, la riparazione, la differenziazione cellulare e la riproduzione (in organismi unicellulari ed esserei viventi a riproduzione asessuata).
| Front | What is mitosis useful for? (4) |
|---|---|
| Back | 1 - growth (new cells) 2 - repair (identical cells produced allow tissue to continue functioning) 3 - cell differentiation (specialised cells produced due to changes in gene expression) 4 - reproduction (singled celled eukaryotes, binary fission in prokaryotes) |
