Eukaryotic Cell Cycle is the cell cycle or cell-division cycle is the series of events that take place in a cell leading to its division and duplication of its DNA (DNA replication) to produce two daughter cells. Basically: {G0, G1, Synthesis, G2} - Interphase and Mitosis (last stage).

Cancer development is when error cells that can't be fixed, are supposed to commit suicide or get killed by other body defences but don't and they find a way to divide and spread causing an increase in error cells.
Mitotic phase is a series of stages of mitosis include prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase.
Meiosis phase is is a special type of nuclear division which segregates one copy of each homologous chromosome into each new "gamete".
Difference between Meiosis and Mitotic:

- Cells do mitosis when they are going to make an exact copy of themselves for asexual reproduction, growth, or tissue repair. DNA replication occurs once, followed by a single division. The parent and daughter cells are both diploid, which means they have a double set of chromosomes.
- Cells do meiosis in order to produce gametes (eggs and sperm) for sexual reproduction. DNA replication occurs once, followed by two divisions. The parent cell is diploid, but the daughter cells are haploid, which means they have half the number of chromosomes as their parent cells.
