Definition
The process in which a cell irreversibly increases in size along one axis through simultaneous polarized growth from opposite ends of a cell, resulting in morphogenesis of the cell
Comment
Bipolar cell growth refers to a change in both cell size and cell shape. For shape changes where cell size is not affected, consider instead the term 'establishment or maintenance of bipolar cell polarity resulting in cell shape ; GO:0061246' and its children.
Synonyms
1. bipolar cell elongation
