Exponential growth implies that the rate of growth increases as time passes.

So, it's not that "one cell" becomes "two cells" in two seconds and "three cells" in three seconds - that's linear growth.

If you plot a chart of "Number of cells" against "Time" or "Number of cycles", the number of cells increases with a ratio greater than 1:1 each time unit or cycle.
