PATHOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Mitosis is used for growth and repair and produces diploid cells identical to each other and the 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. Two cells become four and so on.

Detailed explanation-3: -Mitosis is crucial to this process. Mitosis is the reason we can grow, heal wounds, and replace damaged cells. Mitosis is also important in organisms which reproduce asexually: this is the only way that these cells can reproduce. This is the one key process that sustains populations of asexual organisms.

Detailed explanation-4: -Cells also divide in order to replace damaged or worn-out cells. Most cell division produces genetically identical cells, meaning they have the same DNA. The process of mitosis, which ensures that each nucleus in each resulting cell after cell division is genetically identical, is essential to this process.
