Cell proliferation refers to the process of cell division and multiplication. When cells multiply many times, it leads to an increase in the number of cells, which in turn adds mass to the organism. The term "proliferation" implies multiple rounds of cell division (not just once). Also, it is cell multiplication (not combination) that is associated with proliferation.
