Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Cells need to divide for your body to grow and for body tissue such as skin to continuously renew itself. When a cell divides, the outer membrane increasingly pinches inward until the new cells that are forming separate from each other. This process typically produces two new (daughter) cells from one (parent) cell.
Detailed explanation-2: -When cells become damaged or die the body makes new cells to replace them. This process is called cell division. One cell doubles by dividing into two.
Detailed explanation-3: -The two reasons why cell divides are: Growth. Replacing damaged or dead cells.
