Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Skin cells, red blood cells or gut lining cells cannot undergo mitosis.
Detailed explanation-2: -Nerve cells do not undergo cell division due to absence of centrioles which help in assembling of microtubules during the process of cell division.
Detailed explanation-3: -As neurons are somatic cells then they should undergo Mitosis. For Mitosis to occur, Centrioles should move to the poles and should develop spindle fibers that pull the chromosomes. Neurons lack the Centrioles and hence Mitosis is not possible and so they can’t divide.
