Normal cells have a self-destruct mechanism. This means that at any time, when a cell realises it's not functioning correctly and there's nothing it can do to repair itself and correct the mistake. It'll destroy itself. The incorrect funtionning of a tumor cell however is a defect in this self-destruct mechanism. So the cell will never destroy itself even though it's not working correctly. Since cell division is basically making another copy of the mother cell, this defect is passed on to all cells that are produced from this mother cell and the error is never detected.

How are tumor cells different from normal cells?
Cell division is not regulated in tumor cells.
Do tumor viruses contain genes found in normal cells?
Yes, tumor viruses can contain genes found in normal cells. Some tumor viruses are able to integrate their genetic material into the host cell's genome, which can disrupt normal cellular functions and lead to uncontrolled cell division and tumor formation.
How are tumor cells different from normal cells. Apex?
Tumor cells differ from normal cells primarily in their growth and behavior; they exhibit uncontrolled proliferation, evading the regulatory mechanisms that typically keep cell division in check. Unlike normal cells, which undergo apoptosis (programmed cell death) when damaged or dysfunctional, tumor cells often develop resistance to this process, allowing them to survive and proliferate despite genetic abnormalities. Additionally, tumor cells can invade surrounding tissues and metastasize to distant sites, a characteristic not observed in healthy cells. Furthermore, they may undergo metabolic changes and express different surface markers compared to normal cells.
When cells are not responding to normal controls over growth and division they form tissue mass known as?
When cells are not responding to normal controls over growth and division, they can form tissue masses known as tumors. Tumors can be either benign (not cancerous) or malignant (cancerous).
How are tumer cells different from normal cells?
Tumor cells differ from normal cells primarily in their growth and behavior. They often exhibit uncontrolled proliferation, evading the regulatory mechanisms that typically limit cell division in normal cells. Additionally, tumor cells can undergo genetic mutations, leading to alterations in their metabolism and ability to invade surrounding tissues. Moreover, they frequently acquire resistance to apoptosis, allowing them to survive despite signals that would normally trigger cell death.

What kind of tumor is an abnormal mass of essentially normal cells?
A benign tumor is an abnormal mass of essentially normal cells that does not spread to other parts of the body.
A mass of cancer cells within normal tissue is what?
tumor
How are tumor cells cells from normal cells?
They divide infinitely without slopping. So they increase in size

Do tumor viruses contain genes found in normal cells?
Yes, tumor viruses can contain genes found in normal cells. Some tumor viruses are able to integrate their genetic material into the host cell's genome, which can disrupt normal cellular functions and lead to uncontrolled cell division and tumor formation.
How are cells different from normal cells?
They're different because they grow faster than normal cells and start to kill the cells around them, which can result in a tumor and cause cancer.
