This fact sheet is for the video Cell Growth vs. Cell Proliferation (the cell cycle) Explained .
In the video, I examine cell growth and proliferation. I explore the key concepts of hypertrophy (increase in cell size) and hyperplasia (increase in cell number) and explain why understanding these differences is crucial for comprehending how tissues and organs develop and expand.
I also cover the phases of the cell cycle (G0 phase, G1 phase, S phase, G2 phase and M phase) and the role of the cyclins and cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs) in regulating the cycle.
