Nerve cells no longer undergo mitosis. They stop dividing soon after birth.

nerves, as mentioned and also cardiac muscle cells. That is why your heart cannot heal after a heart attack caused damage.

Most adult cells do not undergo mitosis, under normal conditions but can re-enter the cell cycle to replace damaged cells. Nerves and heart muscle cannot undergo repair.

The lining of your digestive tract, your inner layers of skins and the cells in your bone marrow which produce blood cells are continually undergoing mitosis which is why those organs are badly affected by anticancer drugs which stop mitosis.

most nerve cells
muscle cells technically do go through mitosis (defined as division of the nucleus), but do not undergo cytokinesis (division of the cytoplasm and the rest of the cell). They end up as cells with several nuclei in each.

Your eye cells, nerve cells, brain cells, and your liver cells (liver cells only start to go through mitosis when a part of the live is cut off and is needed to regenerate to its original size)

Actually brain cells and nervure cell can divide when they have to this has been shown on several occasions. I culture brain cells and nerve tissues in the lab both normal and cancerous. I would say that a more correct answer would be cell that have under gone senesce which is a form of cellular old age.

nerve and brain. Thats why if you cut your spinal cord, it'll never grow back. Same thing with your brain.
