Different types of normal tissues in the human body have different mitotic indices. from the following list, which normal tissues would you expect to have the highest mitotic index: muscle, skin, kidney, or lung? explain your answer.

Skin

Explanation:

The tissues with high mitotic index have a number of cells undergoing mitosis. Among the given options, cells of skin exhibit the highest mitotic index. The skin forms the outer most covering of the body surface. Its cells are exposed to various agents of wear and tear.  

To replace the damaged cells, the cells of the skin undergo mitosis. So, skin exhibits the highest mitotic index.  

g1

choices:

a. g2. b. g1. c. m

cell division has two checkpoints namely, g1

checkpoint and spindle assembly checkpoint. the checkpoint which determines if

division has properly occurred is the g1 checkpoint. at this point, is a damage

in the dna is detected or  the has not reach the optimum size, the cell is

stopped in g1 and is not allowed to proceed to further process.
