Are you a high school student?

You're learning mitosis, not because it will be important to you specifically, but because:

1. learning it teaches you discipline. You struggle with something that isn't important to you or the importance of which is not immediately known. This is something you'll be doing in many office jobs --- filling out forms or managing data that have nothing to do with your life, in your home, in your family.

2. learning it gives you broad base of knowledge. You may not want to become a doctor, nurse, or veterinarian, but knowing about mitosis gives you the option if you so choose those courses/career paths. Not knowing it virtually locks you out.

Learning this stuff won't guarantee your success in life. Others have succeeded without it. But without a "great big idea" (like Bill Gates' "operating system"), you'll need to boost your odds of success by learning everything put before you.

It's up to you.

The study of mitosis is just one more step inside science.... so we know how our bodies grow and how an wrong mitosis can destroy the formation of a fetus??? no idea....
also maybe because if we know how DNA is divided in the cells.... we can also know the steps of meiosis and from where sew linked diseases come from (mother or father)???

can't really helo with this
