The Cell Cycle & Mitosis

Cell division is fundamental for the growth and development of organisms, and for the maintenance of tissues and organs throughout life.
In this Lesson, we will learn about the details of mitotic cell division and how it fits into the cell cycle.
We’ll take a look at why eukaryotic cells require mitotic division, and then explore the details of the cell cycle and its regulation, specifically the mechanics of mitosis and cytokinesis.
