Cancer cells are abnormal in that they do not respond to the body's internal and external symbols. When normal cells touch other cells, they stop dividing but, cancer cells don't stop dividing. They pile up causing many problems.

How do bacterial cells reproduce?
Bacteria reproduce through binary fission (cell division) and conjugation. In cell division, the bacteria duplicates its single chromosome, then divides into two different cells; this can happen at an extremely rapid rate (20 minutes). In conjugation, two cells temporarily attach, exchanging DNA; this increases genetic diversity, making the species more sustainable. Once the species detatch, they then go through cell division to reproduce.
Most cells go through a growth and reproduction called the?
I just know of it as cell growth.
What is the difference betwen cytokinesis and mitosis?
Mitosis is the process of genetic duplication while cytoplasmic division is the separating of one parent cell into two daughter cells. While the two often go hand-in-hand, mitosis precedes cytoplasmic division.
Why are cells called the basic unit of life?
Cells are called the basic unit of life because anything that is alive needs to have at least one cell. Cells go through mitosis to make more cells and to create life.
A botanist hypothesis that all onion cells have the same shape how would you go about veryfying or disproving this?
an onion cell is a plant cell, in which plant cells are rectangular shape and so are onion cells
What kind of cells does division take place in?
if by division you mean mitosis then all cells except sex cells go through mitosis. Sex cells go through meiosis. Mitosis is basically the process of a cell splitting into 2 daughter cells.
What is a feature of plant cell division that distinguishes it from animal cell divisions?
Animal cells go through Mitosis while plants go through meiosis...
Where does cell division occur in a 1 year old child?
well know one knows really CELL DIVISION cell division is the process that cells go through in order to divide
What allows cells to reproduce?
in order for cells to reproduce they must go through cell division or in other words mitosis. they go through steps that last a bit of time to reproduce.
What is cell division called in Somatic Cells called?
Somatic cells are the cells that form the body like skin, blood and bones. These type of cells go through the cell division process called mitosis. Gametes, or germline cells, like sperm and ova go a different cell division process called meiosis.
What living cell does not go through mitosis?
1st answer) i think all cells go through mitosis the process of cell division 2nd answer) Mostly all cells go through mitosis, but sex or reproductive cells go through meiosis instead.
Do all cells undergo mitosis division?
Yes, ALL cells undergo cell division. Because if there were types of cells that don't undergo cell division, these cells' specialization wouldn't be able to grow or be replaced. For example if hair cells didn't undergo cell division; your hair wouldn't be able to grow. NO!! Nerve cells,Red blood cells..they don't undergo cell division.
What type of cell division produce the sperm and egg cell?
it is formed by meiosis. At first the spermatazoa go through mitosis making two spermatocytes. which then goes through meiosis producing 4 spermatids which then go through spermogenisi n make 4 sperm cells
Cell division is basically the same in prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells?
prokaryotes go through binary fission (budding), while eukaryotes go through mitosis
What materials go in and out of an organism's cells through?
The cells go through the cell's membrane
How do differences in plant and animal cells affect cell division?
Plant cells have a cell wall, so it can't pinch in and separate like an animal cell does. So, a plant cell forms a cell plate in the middle, then that becomes a cell wall and new membrane. That's why plant cells are so close together.
What is a cell division and how do cells divide?
cell division is Mitosis, and they go though that process to get 2 daughter cells with same amount of chromosomes. It also repeats itself
