ROLES OF CELL DIVISION The ability of organisms to reproduce best distinguishes living things from nonliving matter. The continuity of life is based on reproduction of cells‚ or cell division. In unicellular organisms like amoeba‚ division of one cell reproduces the entire organism. Multicellular organisms depend on cell division for: — Development from a fertilized cell — Growth — Repair Cell division is an integral part of the cell cycle
