Very good question and it depends on the type of cancer, the organ it involves, and the genetic abnormalities. In other words, be more specific. This might describe many current research going on right now.

What happens when cell do not respond to the signals that normally regulate their growth?
Cancer cells do not respond to the signals that regulate the growth of most cells. such cells called cancer cells divide uncontrollably and form masses of cells called tumors that can damage the surrounding tissues
Does the cell cycle become uncontrolled in cancer?
Yes
What controls the rate at which cells divide?
cyclins regulate the timing of the cell cycle in eukaryotic cells,cancer cells do not respond to the signals that regulate the growth of most cells.
What are three sources of signals related to the regulation of cel growth and division?
Three sources of signals related to the regulation of cell growth and division are growth factors, hormone signals, and signals from neighboring cells. Growth factors are molecules released by cells that promote cell proliferation. Hormone signals, such as those from the reproductive system, can also influence cell growth and division. Signals from neighboring cells, called contact inhibition, can regulate cell growth by preventing cells from dividing when they come into contact with other cells.
What is the difference between cancer cells and normal cells?
Cancer cells normally have a defect in their receptor proteins on the membrane. There are several growth receptors on the surface of cells, and if one of them is faulty, cancer may form. The cancerous mass will continue to divide if there is no negative feedback from the cells surrounding it. In addtition to not being able to receive normal signals that regulate the cell cycle, cancer cells do not stop dividing when growth factors are depleted, simply put cancer cells don't require nutrients to grow, however they may still receive nutrients. As long as a cancer cell is provided with nutrients they may grow indefinately until some random point in the cycle where they may stop, rather then stopping at checkpoints in the normal cell cycle, making them somewhat "immortal". These are the most common differences in cancer cells and normal cells.
What type of cell doesn't respond to a cell's growth regulation signals?
Cancer?

The appearance of this structure signals the end of bone growth?
the appearance if this structure signals the end of the bone growth

Is aplastic anemia considered cancer?
No. Cancer by definition entails growth. A.A. is a destruction of the stem cells that produce blood. (Both may require the same treatment of a bone marrow transplant)

What is the uncontrolled growth division of cells that result in a malignant growth is known as?
the answer is cancer.
What signals the end of bone growth?
epiphysis line
What are the euphemisms for cancer?
growth
What uncontrollable cell division is?
cancer maligant growth
