- Volume - surface area ratio-cell dependent on surface area for diffusion if gets too big, must divide.
- Nucleus- must have enough DNA to support size if not, must divide ex: paramecium have 2 nuclei to support cell size.
- Contact inhibition- if too many (overcrowded) = stop mitosis.
- Anchorage- must be anchored to reproduce.
- Growth factors- kinase and cyclins influence mitosis
