Meiosis vs. Mitosis, Cancer, Regulation of Cell Cycle

In what part of the Cell Cycle does the cell grow and replicate DNA?

• Interphase

• Mitosis

• Meiosis

• Cytokinesis

What would happen if you are injured and the cell cycle is stopped in your body?

• You would form cancer

• The injury wouldn't heal

• You would mutate

• The injury would get worse
