the cell cycle
No
Cells undergo elongation during the phase of growth after cell division that leads to primary growth in stems. This phase involves the cells increasing in length, resulting in the extension of the stem.
Somatic cells carry out mitosis, while germ cells carry out meiosis. Somatic cells are body cells that undergo division for growth and repair, while germ cells are sex cells that undergo division to produce gametes for sexual reproduction.
No, germ cells undergo meiosis to produce haploid gametes (sperm and egg cells), not mitosis. Mitosis is the process of cell division that produces genetically identical daughter cells for growth and repair in somatic cells.
Genes that encourage cell division are typically referred to as proto-oncogenes. These genes promote normal cell growth and division by producing proteins that drive the cell cycle and facilitate cellular proliferation. When proto-oncogenes undergo mutations or are overexpressed, they can become oncogenes, potentially leading to uncontrolled cell division and cancer development.

It is known as the cell cycle. :)
The cell cycle
The regular cycle of growth and division that cells undergo is called the cell cycle. It consists of different stages such as interphase, mitosis, and cytokinesis, during which the cell grows, duplicates its DNA, and divides into two daughter cells.
Mitosis
No
Cells undergo elongation during the phase of growth after cell division that leads to primary growth in stems. This phase involves the cells increasing in length, resulting in the extension of the stem.
This is the cell cycle, which consists of interphase (G1, S, G2 phases) where the cell grows and duplicates its DNA, followed by mitosis where the nuclear material is divided, and cytokinesis where the cell is split into two daughter cells. This process allows cells to grow, repair, and reproduce.
The sequence from 3 to 7 can be described as consecutive integers.
Interphase is the first stage of the cell cycle
No, brain cells do not undergo meiosis. Meiosis is a process of cell division that produces gametes (sperm and egg cells) with half the number of chromosomes as the parent cell. Brain cells, known as neurons, undergo a different process called mitosis for growth, repair, and maintenance of the brain.
Anabolic steroids do not directly impact how cells undergo mitotic cell division. However, they can affect muscle growth and repair, which involves cell division. Prolonged use of anabolic steroids can disrupt hormone balance and have negative effects on overall health, potentially impacting cellular processes indirectly.
