Cancer cells can form from almost any cell.
A cell becomes cancerous when it functions abnormally in the body, not working as it should, and usually reproducing at a rapid rate to create more malfunctioning cells.
Example :
If someone's lung cells were absorbing much more oxygen than what they originally were supposed to, they could be cancerous. Eventually, the abnormality would start affecting other cells and damaging them.
The chain reaction is what causes cancer.

What happens when cells do not respond the signals that normally regulate their growth?

Is cancer made of atoms or elements?
Cancer is made of atoms, which are the basic building blocks of all matter, including elements. The atoms in cancer cells interact to form molecules, which make up the structure and function of cells.
What are bad cells?
"Bad cells" could refer to cancer cells, which are abnormal cells that divide uncontrollably and can invade surrounding tissues. These cells can form tumors and impact the functioning of normal cells in the body.
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
