Which of the following cells can divide?

Ared blood cells

Bmuscle cells

Cskin cells

Dnerve cells

Answer:

D. nerve cells

Read Explanation:

  • Nerve cells, also known as neurons, are nervous system cells responsible for transmitting electrical signals and communication within the body.

  • Unlike red blood cells, muscle cells, and skin cells, nerve cells cannot divide once they have fully matured.

  • Nerve cells cannot divide, if any, in the mature nervous system.

  • Once they have reached their mature state, most nerve cells lose the ability to undergo cell division.

  • This lack of division contributes to the challenges of nerve cell regeneration and repair in the central nervous system.
