Question

The regular sequence of growth and division that cells undergo is called the?

Answer 1

Answer:

Cell cycle.

Explanation:

A cell can be defined as the fundamental or basic functional, structural and smallest unit of life for all living organisms. Some living organisms are unicellular while others are multicellular in nature.

A unicellular organism refers to a living organism that possess a single-cell while a multicellular organism has many (multiple) cells.

Generally, cells have the ability to independently replicate themselves. These cells can be compared to the kind of structures found in a business or factory, where you have different workers performing different functions.

In a cell, the "workers" that perform various functions or tasks for the survival of the living organism are referred to as organelles and they include nucleus, cytoplasm, cell membrane, golgi apparatus, mitochondria, lysosomes, ribosomes, chromosomes, endoplasmic reticulum, vesicles, etc.

The regular sequence of growth and division that cells undergo is called the cell cycle. This cycle makes it possible for the cells found in living organisms to divide and produce new cells.

Basically, there are four (4) phases of the cell cycle and these are;

I. Prophase.

II. Metaphase.

III. Anaphase.

IV. Telophase.
