If something has cells, does that automatically mean it reproduces?

Question

If something has cells, does that automatically mean it reproduces?

Answer 1

That depends on what you call "reproduce"

If you think of it as just the thing that comes with the intervention of two organisms, then no, it will not.

But then, if your definition of "reproduce" incudes the most basic way of it, as in making a copy of something, then, yes, a single cell is capable of reproducing itself (like bacteria, they are one-cell organisms and they reproduce)

Answer 2

No. That something could be dead.

Parts of things, like leaves and fingers, will have cells but they aren't going to reproduce of and by themselves.

Answer 3

Yeah, I'd go with the first answer.

And what about prisons?

(ba-da-bing!)

Answer 4

if something has cells that dosent mean that it has the capability to reproduce sexually. But almost all cells will divide. The exceptions are 0 growth cells like brain tissue.

Hope this helps some

Answer 5

There are even complete animals, such as mules, which are made up of cells and cannot reproduce.
