WHAT DOES AUTOCATALYSIS MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Autocatalysis

A single chemical reaction is said to have undergone autocatalysis, or be autocatalytic, if the reaction product itself is the catalyst for that reaction. A set of chemical reactions can be said to be "collectively autocatalytic" if a number of those reactions produce, as reaction products, catalysts for enough of the other reactions that the entire set of chemical reactions is self-sustaining given an input of energy and food molecules.

Definition of autocatalysis in the English dictionary

The definition of autocatalysis in the dictionary is the catalysis of a reaction in which the catalyst is one of the products of the reaction.
