Descriptions Names[Advanced Search]

The developmental process by which the size or shape of a cell is generated and organized. Morphogenesis pertains to the creation of form. Polarized growth from one end of a cell. Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of monopolar cell growth, polarized growth from one end of a cell. Any process that stops, prevents or reduces the frequency, rate or extent of monopolar cell growth, polarized growth from one end of a cell. The process by which a cell irreversibly increases in size over time by accretion and biosynthetic production of matter similar to that already present. Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of monopolar cell growth, polarized growth from one end of a cell. The increase in size or mass of an anatomical structure that contributes to the structure attaining its shape. The process by which a cell irreversibly increases in size in one [spatial] dimension or along one axis, resulting in the morphogenesis of the cell.
