I. Cell division brings about embryonic development and growth
II. It plays a role in repair and maintenance of the body
III. It is important for reproduction
The correct option is

Mr. NARESH KUMAR K · Accepted Answer

## CORE INFORMATION
✓ **Answer**: D
## CONCEPT FRAMEWORK
	**Primary Concept**: Functions of Multicellular Cell Division
	**Related Topics**: Mitosis, Meiosis, Tissue Regeneration
	**Prerequisites**: Basic understanding of cell division and its role in multicellular organisms.
## SOLUTION PATHWAY
**Given Information**:
	Statements about the functions of cell division in multicellular organisms.
	Identifying correct statements among given options
**Method & Steps**:
	1. Analyze each statement:
		Reasoning: Determine if the statement is a known function of cell division.
		I. Cell division drives embryonic development and growth of multicellular organisms through mitosis. Therefore, statement I is correct.
		II. Cell division is essential for repair and maintenance by replacing old or damaged cells through mitosis. Statement II is correct.
		III. In sexual reproduction, cell division (meiosis) leads to the formation of gametes, which are necessary for reproduction. Statement III is correct.
	2. Identify the option that includes all correct statements.
		Result: Option D includes all three statements, I, II and III.
 ## OPTION ANALYSIS
[A] :x:  This option only includes statement I, which is incomplete.
[B] :x: This option includes statements I and III but omits statement II, which is also true.
[C] :x: This option includes only statement II, which is incomplete.
[D] ✓: This option includes all the correct statements (I, II, and III).
 ## LEARNING AIDS
	**Common Mistakes**:
		1.[Error 1]:  Overlooking the role of cell division in repair and maintenance. [How to avoid] Remembering that cell division isn't only about creating new organisms but also about maintaining existing ones.
		2.[Error 2]: Thinking that cell division is *only* for reproduction. [How to avoid] Understanding that for multicellular organisms, cell division is primarily for growth and repair, with a specialized form (meiosis) for reproduction.
	**Quick Tips**:
		1.[Helpful shortcut]: Remember the three core functions of cell division in multicellular organisms: Growth, Repair, and Reproduction.
		2.[Memory aid]: Think of the acronym 'GRR' (Growth, Repair, Reproduction) to remember the functions of cell division.
