The Cell CycleThe Cell Cycle
The Cell Cycle Describes the Life The Cell Cycle Describes the Life of a Eukaryotic Cellof a Eukaryotic Cell
Cell division in eukaryotic cells is more Cell division in eukaryotic cells is more complex than in prokaryotic cells because complex than in prokaryotic cells because it involves dividing both the cytoplasm and it involves dividing both the cytoplasm and the chromosomes inside the nucleus.the chromosomes inside the nucleus.
