The three main causes of cancer are smoking, diet and exercise. The prevention of cancer is mainly in the hands of the people based on the lifestyle they choose to lead.
Answer:
Age and genetics are the largest causes of cancer. Lifestyle choices are a lower risk factor. Some people are predisposed to cancer. Age ( and the number of cell replications) reduces the length of the telemeres in the DNA molecules which cause replication errors (cancers) in the cells.

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.
Growth due to an increase in cell number is called?
Growth that is due to an increase in cell number results from an increased rate of mitotic cell division and is termed hyperplasia. Consequently, growth of a tissue or organ due to an increase in cell size is termed hypertrophy.
When cells stop responding to normal controls over growth and division they?
They can form tumors which may be cancerous.

Economic growth is measured by an increase in the real Gross National Product of a country or its GDP. There are two types of economic growth, long run and short run economic growth. Short run economic growth is caused by an increase in the aggregate demand of an economy, otherwise referred to as AD. AD is made up of four factors, consumption, investment, government spending and the net worth of imports and exports. An increase in any of these factors can lead to an increase in real GDP.

How the presence of a cancerous tumor affect the biological processes?
Cancerous tumours are formed from cells which have had mutations in very specific genes which have allowed them to survive independantly of cells around them in the body. Some of these key genes code for growth factors and other proteins which affect normal body cells. Often the tumour cell mutations cause upregulation of these growth factors causing neighbouring healthy cells to be affected in unusual ways.
