Hi.

The growth of the CELL is not a function of mitosis. Mitosis causes the number of Cells to increase ie growth of the tissue and not the growth of individual cell.

The same logic again would apply to this c option as well. The repair of the tissue is the job for the mitotic cell division not the repair of the individual cells.

This is the logic I used. If someone has a better one please share.

Option 3, the repair of cells confuses me? Would you mind explaining why its not this option as well? I was under the assumptions that mitosis is what is used to repair cells?
I agree with the logic of option 2, that makes sense for me.

That makes sense. Thank you very much!
