The word "cycle" in cell cycle refers to the regular pattern of growth, DNA duplication, and cell division that occurs in eukaryotic cells.
The cell cycle is the term that describes the development and growth of a cell, after its formation and until its reproduction (division into two daughter cells). In eukaryotic cells (cells that include a nucleus) the cell cycle is comprised of two major phases, the interphase and the mitosis. During interphase, the cell grows larger and duplicates its genetic material. During mitosis, the cell divides its genetic material and cytoplasm, creating two daughter cells.

Cancer cells are rogue clones. List and describe three mutations that allow these cells to escape the normal restrictions placed
Amanda [17]
<span>Cells control cell division in order to maintain normal cell function. If something happens to the control of the cell division, the healthy cells will divide uncontrollably. These new cells are cancer cells. </span>
The mutations in three genes are responsible for development of cancers:
1. Mutation in proto-oncogenes. Proto-oncogenes normally signal cells to grow and differentiate. Proto-oncogenes can become oncogenes due to mutations which result in the uncontrollable division of the cells.
2. Mutation in tumor suppressor genes. In normal cells, tumor suppressor genes suppress genes essential for cell cycle and that way they prevent uncontrollable cell division. However, after a mutation in these genes, suppression is lost and the cell may progress to cancer.
3. Mutation in stability genes. In normal cells, they have no role either in cell death or growth, but they control mutation rate. Mutation in stability genes results in situation where all genes, including proto-oncogenes and tumor suppression genes, are more frequently mutated.
