Define apoptosis in biology

Apoptosis is a form of programmed cell death that occurs in multicellular organisms.

Explanation:

Apoptosis is the process of programmed cell death

Explanation:

Biochemical events lead to characteristic cell changes and death. These changes include blebbing, cell shrinkage, nuclear fragmentation, chromatin condensation, D.N.A. fragmentation, and mRNA decay.  For example, those between the fingers of a developing hand. In adults, apoptosis is used to rid the body of cells that have been damaged beyond repair. Apoptosis also plays a role in preventing cancer. If apoptosis is for some reason prevented, it can lead to uncontrolled cell division and the subsequent development of a tumor.
