Which type of tissue would have a higher mitotic index normal tissue or cancerous tissue?
Cancer cells have higher mitotic index because they have a mutation in the DNA so they reproduce uncontrollably and therefore divide faster which means they have a higher mitotic index. ex. In a normal lung tissue, % of cells dividing is 5% while in a cancerous lung the % of cells divding is 25 %
Is the percentage of cells in the resting stage is higher in cancerous cells than normal cells?
No, cancer cells are more active than normal cells. Cancer cells are always dividing at a faster rate than normal cells.
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.
When cells stop responding to normal controls over growth and division they?
They can form tumors which may be cancerous.
Cancerous cell growth called?
The growth and spreading of cancer cells are called metastasis
When cells are not responding to normal controls over growth and division they form tissue mass known as?
Cancer or tumor .
Does the cell cycle become uncontrolled in cancer?
Yes
What is a mutation that forms an oncogene that changes normal cells into cancerous cells?
to a gene
What are dividing normal human cells called?
Healthy, non-cancerous cells.
A disease characterized by the unrestrained growth of abnormal cells on or in tissues of the body?
Unrestrained of cells in or on the body can be a tumor. This can be non-cancerous or cancerous. Since you are looking at a "disease caused by unrestrained growth of abnormal cells", I would suggest cancer.Non-cancerous growth can cause problems that can be called diseases. A large growth of non-cancerous cells can cause problems of the pancreas called pancreatitis.Cancerous growths of the pancreas can cause blockage of the bile ducts causing jaundice.There are many other example of these.
How does cancerous growth occur?
Well cancerous cell growth divides more rapidly, and skips parts in the process. Its cells go through interphase faster than normal cells. They can multiply faster than any cell. The processes are the following:ProphaseMetaphaseAnaphaseTelophaseInterphaseInterphase is the longest Process out of all the processes. :)I hope this helped you out!! Im a 10th grader so im sure theres more informatation to be learned! :D
What is it called when normal body cells turn cancerous?
Carcino-Genesis.
