Cells of the human body reproduce through:

  1. Direct contact

  2. Mitosis

  3. Indirect division

  4. Osmosis

The correct answer is: Indirect division

Cells of the human body reproduce through indirect division, also known as cell division or cell reproduction. This process involves the splitting of one cell into two identical cells, a vital process for growth and repair in multicellular organisms. The other options, direct contact, mitosis, and osmosis, do not accurately describe the process of cellular reproduction. Direct contact is a method of communication between cells, mitosis is a type of cell division that only occurs in eukaryotic cells, and osmosis refers to the movement of water molecules through a selectively permeable membrane. Therefore, these options are incorrect in the context of human cell reproduction.
