Biology teacher was teaching cell cycle in the class. She taught that cell is the basis from which life exists. Also explained well about cell cycle. Robin who was a bright student was facing difficulties in understanding the topic he reached home and asked her sister who is a student of biology in a college about details of cell cycle and cell theory. She explained him that according to cell theory, cells arise from pre-existing cells and the process involved is cell division. Sexually reproducing organisms start their life from a single cell, called zygote, and cell divisions do not stop with the formation of a mature organism, but continue throughout the life.
