Question

Why is cell division cyclic?

Answer 1

Cell division is cyclic because:

1. A cell cycle is a set of events that occur in a cell as it divides and grows.
2. A cell spends the majority of its time in interphase, which is when it grows, duplicates its chromosomes, and prepares to divide.
3. After that, the cell exits interphase, goes through mitosis, and completes its division.
4. The daughter cells that result go through their own interphase and start a new round of the cell cycle.
