What can disrupt the cell cycle?
The growth of a cancerous tumor
What two types of defects does a cancerous cell possess?
Cancerous cells possess defects that make proteins required for cell growth active and tumor suppressor genes inactive.
What is the formation of specialised cell types durning growth called?
The formation of specialized cell types during growth is called differentiation
Do external regulators prevent excessive cell growth and keep the tissues of the body from disrupting each other?
Yes. For more look into for example the mechanisms of apotosis. If this "restraint" is gone, then cell growth occurs that are most commonly described as "cancerous" AKA going uncontrollably.
Why do cancer cells go through the cell cycle rapidly?
Cancer cells lack the gene that stops cell growth at a certain point which causes them to grow and grow and not stop. Therefore, in cell growth, a cancer cell has nothing to tell it to stop growing.

The process in which a normal cell become a cancerous cell is called what?
Dysplasia
What happens if you have unrestrained cell growth and division?
Then the cell will form a tumor. These cancerous lumps can either be malignant or benign.
What goes wrong with a normal cell when it becomes cancerous?
A normal cell turns cancerous when there is damage between a few of the genes that are in control of cell growth. These cells will eventually invade the blood supply and kill the host.
How could finding out what causes cell to divide help to find out a way to stop cancerous growth?
it is the erthe
What is uncontrolled growth called?
Uncontrolled cell growth is usually called a tumor. When there is a condition that causes uncontrolled cell growth of abnormal cells, it is called cancer.
What is the growth and division of a cell called?
Cell Cycle
What is that a cell contiously divide?
A cancerous cell.
What is cell growth called?
Mitosis
What is the formation of specialised cell types durning growth called?
The formation of specialized cell types during growth is called differentiation
Which disease is a result of uncontrolled cell growth?
Uncontrolled cell growth is usually called a tumor. When there is a condition that causes uncontrolled cell growth of abnormal cells, it is called cancer.
