Cell Cycle and Cell Division

The Cell Cycle and Cell Division category explores the fundamental processes by which cells grow, replicate, and divide to maintain life. This essential biological cycle consists of distinct phases, including interphase, mitosis, and cytokinesis, each playing a critical role in ensuring accurate genetic distribution and cellular function. Understanding these mechanisms is vital for fields such as genetics, cancer research, and developmental biology. In this category, topics will delve into the stages of the cell cycle, regulatory proteins, checkpoints, and the implications of cell division errors, providing a comprehensive overview of this key aspect of cellular biology.
