title: The relationship between cell and population growth.
abstract: A steady-state model of cell volume frequency distribution using the method of Williams (1971) is derived. Results are compared to a Monte Carlo simulation of cell growth and division. It is suggested that the Monte Carlo method might be of value for investigating cell and population properties for which analytic methods are not currently available.
