Cancer cells divide at different rates depending on the type of cancer. Thats one of the ways they determine survival rate. The genetic code or DNA of the cell goes haywire in cancer and its replication is unchecked. Aggressive cancers, like small cell cancers, have an accelerated cell division like someone putting the pedal to the metal until something gives. Dan
