    Study Notes

    Cell Cycle Regulation and Cancer

    • Cell division is controlled in multicellular organisms.
    • Cell division is controlled so cells only divide when needed.
    • This is important for:
      • Body growth
      • Maintaining the correct shape during development and repair
