Endogenous \En*dog"e*nous\, a.
1. (Bot.) Increasing by internal growth and elongation at the
summit, instead of externally, and having no distinction
of pith, wood, and bark, as the rattan, the palm, the
cornstalk.
2. (Biol.) Originating from within; increasing by internal
growth.
{Endogenous multiplication} (Biol.), a method of cell
formation, seen in cells having a cell wall. The nucleus
and protoplasm divide into two distinct masses; these in
turn become divided and subdivided, each division becoming
a new cell, until finally the original cell wall is
ruptured and the new cells are liberated (see
{Segmentation}, and Illust. of {Cell Division}, under
{Division}). This mode of growth is characteristic of many
forms of cells, both animal and vegetable.
