nerve cells never reproduce through mitosis and formally, your sperm and egg cells never undergo mitosis, they undergo miosis (however, mitosis is a part of this, so id stick with nerve cells)
your cheek, skin, stomach, and other cells that line tissues all undergo mitosis extremely rapidly for various reasons, as the person about me touched on, skin cells are always being replaced as they are scraped off throughout the day
you swallow tons of cheek cells and throat cells everytime you eat something, in fact, cuts heal the fastest in your mouth than of anywhere else becasue the cells divide so rapidly.
your stomach uses HCl, or Hydrochloric acid (about a pH of 2!) to help to digest your food and has to replace the lining of the stomach once a week so that the stomach dosnt end up digesting itself!
hope this helps

Well your brain cells do not reproduce through mitosis.
And the cells that do it the most are skin cells and the cells in your stomach. The skin cells have to keep multiplying because they die so easily and get scraped off so much and they must protect from infections. And the stomach needs to reproduce due to chemicals that kill the cells.

All cells different than germ cells that are gametes. Gametes are the intercourse cells like sperm and egg. they are formed in the time of meiosis. Mitosis is the splitting of hte cellular and it happens in our physique cells.
