Cell Cycle
The cell cycle is the process a cell undertakes to replicate all of its material and divide into two identical cells. In this article, we will look at the different stages of the cell cycle and what happens in each stage. We will also consider the regulation of the cell cycle, and look at some examples of dysregulation.
