Cancer cells are extra unneeded cells that are produced faster than the cells die and tumors are extra cells so a ton of cells are together to make a tumor
A tumor formed by metastatic cancer cells is called a metastatic tumor or a metastasis. The process by which cancer cells spread to other parts of the body is also called metastasis.
A mass of new cells that forms from uncontrolled cell growth is refered to as a neoplasm. This can indicate a cancer or tumour, where cell growth is unchecked and defective.
The growth of a cancerous tumor
Cancer cells don't need much more blood than any other cell - the problem is when there is a collection of cancer cells in a tumor. The tumor as a whole is rapidly dividing (usually), so it needs a great deal of energy and nutrients to do that. Nutrients are brought into the body's tissues by circulating blood, which is why many tumors develop angiogenesis properties (the ability to create new blood vessels).
Oncogenes regulate cell division, so if it is placed near an overly active gene, it may itself become overly active, thus causing cancer. Tumor suppressors suppress tumors and will only cause cancer if it stops its activity, contrary to oncogenes.
Basically a cancer cell is a cell that it is out of control and invades tissues in uncontrolled reproduction taking over blood and nutrients supplies.
No. They will contain abnormal cells and cancer if implanted.

NSE is a protein found mainly in neurons and neuroendocrine cells. It is elevated in tumors derived from these tissues, including neuroblastoma and small cell lung cancer.

I dont believe so because cancer is a tumor caused by a bad cell that takes over good cells and it is impossible to get a tumor in the hair... so NO!
If cell division were not controlled, there would be unrestricted over growth of cells to form a shapeless mass of cells called a tumor. Uncontrolled cell growth is called cancer
A tumor just refers to an abnormal growth of cells that form a swollen growth. A tumor is not necessarily cancer. It may be benign or malignant.
Type your answer here... giant cell tumour on little finger if removed is that the end of it and not cancer
It depends on what you mean by 'out of control', but if you mean the cell keeps can't stop dividing while carrying faulty information, it's called cancer.
Yes, a malignant tumor is cancerous. The term "malignant" is used in medical terminology to describe tumors or growths that are cancerous in nature. Malignant tumors are characterized by uncontrolled and abnormal cell growth, and they have the potential to invade nearby tissues and spread to other parts of the body through a process called metastasis. This ability to invade and metastasize distinguishes malignant tumors from benign tumors, which do not invade nearby tissues and are typically noncancerous.
Small cell lung cancer is a disease in which the cells of the lung tissues grow uncontrollably and form tumors.
