Generally speaking, all cells except for nerve cells store energy to drive chemical processes during cell division. So before undergoing Mitosis, they first prepare themselves that results to their growth in size until they had stored enough energy, then the cells are ready to divide themselves.

During mitosis, cells are dividing to produce two identical daughter cells. The process involves the duplication and separation of the cell's chromosomes to ensure each daughter cell receives a complete set of genetic material. Mitosis is crucial for growth, repair, and maintenance of tissues in multicellular organisms.
No, plant cells DO undergo mitosis, but there are some minor changes.
During the end of telophase and the beginning of cytokinesis in animal cells, the cell membrane pinches in half to form the 2 new daughter cells. However, in plant cells, a thicker cell plate forms between the 2 new cells, and they pinch off and the outside hardens into a new cell wall.

The cells in the corpus layer region undergo rapid mitosis
A single cell undergoing mitosis typically produces two daughter cells.
Somatic cells would be the general term describing the type of cells undergoing mitosis in a human. These are the any cells in the body that are not specialized for reproduction and undergo mitosis for growth, repair, and maintenance.
Mitosis is a process of cell division that results in two genetically identical daughter cells. Therefore, one cell undergoing mitosis produces two daughter cells.
All cells are undergoing mitosis continuously to replace, cells that are dying continuously.

The very top layer of the dermis is always undergoing mitosis as the top layer (epidermis) is being lost all the time.
These are called permeant cells. Examples are adult neurons, striated muscles, cardiac muscle, RBCs and cells of lens in the eye.
Nerve cells (neurons) and muscle cells (myocytes) stop undergoing mitosis after birth. Once fully developed, these cells mostly remain in a post-mitotic state, meaning they do not divide further.
To develop a procedure to identify cancerous tissue based on the number of cells undergoing mitosis, you could obtain a tissue sample, stain it to highlight mitotic cells, and then count the number of cells undergoing mitosis per unit area using a microscope. An increased number of cells undergoing mitosis may indicate abnormal cell proliferation characteristic of cancer. Further validation through histological analysis and comparison with healthy tissue samples would be necessary to confirm the presence of cancer.
