The correct response is Brain and muscle cells.

While some brain and muscle cells can undergo limited regeneration (such as certain types of neural stem cells or muscle satellite cells), the majority of neurons and mature muscle fibers generally do not perform mitosis. In contrast, skin, hair, blood, and organ cells typically do undergo mitosis to facilitate growth and repair. Sperm and egg cells also do not perform mitosis but instead undergo meiosis to produce gametes.
