(physiology) the normal degeneration and death of living cells (as in various epithelial cells)

the process in reproduction and growth by which a cell divides to form daughter cells

any small intracellular body found within another (characteristic of certain diseases)

a hand-held mobile radiotelephone for use in an area divided into small sections, each with its own short-range transmitter/receiver

the metabolic processes whereby certain organisms obtain energy from organic molecules; processes that take place in the cells and tissues during which energy is released and carbon dioxide is produced and absorbed by the blood to be transported to the lungs

differing from true slime molds in being cellular and nucleate throughout the life cycle
