What purposes does mitosis serve?
There are multiple answers - choose all correct answers!
During development and growth, mitosis populates an organism’s body with cells.
Reproduction for single-celled eukaryotes like yeast. Mitosis adds new individuals to the population.
Mitosis makes 2 identical daughter cells from a single parent cell. This is how somatic (body) cells duplicate.
Throughout an organism’s life, mitosis replaces old, worn-out cells with new ones.
