Answer 1

Cell division occurs all the time in all parts of the body , except the brain, nerves and the bones( although inside the bones there is division)

Answer 2

The most active parts for cell division would be the ones where cells have a regular turnover. These include lower skin layers, gastrointestinal tract (from mouth to anus), and blood stem cells in marrow. This division occurs throughout life in healthy adults. Specialised cells in adults generally do not divide, these include muscle cells, nerve cells etc.

Answer 3

Every where just about
Yes it will be occuring in 18-80 age doesnt matter
You sure you have correct term hair growing is cell division

Answer 4

All over the place, the body is constantly replacing tissue which requires cell division to take place, for example the epidermis(top layer of skin) is replaced by its lower layer the stratum basale, new blood cells are formed in the red bone marrow, in men spermatozoa(sperm) are constantly being replaced in the testes more specifically the seminiferous tubules, also bone tissue replaces itself constantly, there is much more, i hope this helps

Answer 5

Nearly everypart of your body. The exception is nerve cells and maybe others too. If there would be no more cell division at any age, you wouldn't have any more organs, blood, ect... because they depend on mitosis, which renews them.
