Mitosis

Question 22 • EDG Biology A w/Lab

What would happen to an organism if mitosis did not occur? Check all that apply.

Answer
A
The organism would not be affected.
B
The organism would not grow.
C
If an organism were cut or burned, the damaged area would not heal.
D
The organism would not produce new cells.

Explanation

Mitosis produces new cells for growth and for replacing or repairing damaged cells. Without it, an organism would not grow, and a cut or burn would not heal through cell replacement. The organism also could not produce new cells by mitosis, so “would not be affected” is incorrect.
