Cells start to divide when they receive a signal. They continue to divide until they get another signal to stop. A cell with damaged DNA may not respond to the stop signal. The cell can become cancerous and divide uncontrollably. The cancerous cell and all its daughter cells can form a tumor. During which step of the cell cycle does a cell get the signal to begin cell division?

• cytokinesis

• telophase

• prophase

• interphase
