Skin Our entire body is covered with a protective layer of epithelial cells. The layer of epithelial cells acts as the first line of defense against invaders from the exterior. Skin cells are constantly dying. Additionally, they are frequently damaged and this
could lead to gaps in the epithelial barrier. This protective layer of cells is critical to homeostasis. How does our body counter
epithelial cell death and damage to maintain homeostasis?
A
through the process of meiosis
B)
through cell replication or mitosis
by slowing down the processes of the cell cycle
D)
by producing more than 2 daughter cells per mitotic division

B. Through cell replication or mitosis.

Explanation:

Meiosis take place only during a sexual reproduction situation (with sex cells), while mitosis is the multiplication or replicating of normal cells. The body creates and keeps balance by making up for what has been lost through adding more of it.

humans can cause extinction of a species through overharvesting, pollution, habitat destruction, introduction of invasive species (such as new predators and food competitors), overhunting, and other influences. explosive, unsustainable human population growth is an essential cause of the extinction crisis.
