Growth that is due to an increase in cell number results from an increased rate of mitotic cell division and is termed hyperplasia. Consequently, growth of a tissue or organ due to an increase in cell size is termed hypertrophy.

What process causes the number of cells to increase?

Hyperplasia is defined as?
Hyperplasia is the increase in the number of cells in an organ or tissue, leading to an enlargement of that specific area. It is a physiological response to stimuli and can occur as a result of increased demand or as part of the body's normal growth and development process. Hyperplasia differs from hypertrophy, which is the increase in cell size without an increase in cell number.
