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.
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).
What is the medical term meaning compression of surrounding cells by the tumor cells?
The medical term for compression of surrounding cells by tumor cells is "mass effect." This occurs when a tumor grows and displaces nearby tissues or organs, causing them to become compressed or distorted. It can lead to various symptoms depending on the location and size of the tumor.
How do maligant tumor cells differ to benige tumor cells?
Malignant tumor cells are cancerous, tend to grow rapidly, spread to other parts of the body, and can be life-threatening. Benign tumor cells are non-cancerous, grow slowly, do not invade nearby tissues, and are typically not life-threatening.
How are tumor cl different from normal cell?
Mitosis is not regulated in Tumor Cells -> Apexvs
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 different from normal cells?
Cell division is not regulated in tumor cells.
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.
How are tumor cells different cells?
Mitosis is not regulated in tumor 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).
Do tumor viruses contain genes that are found in normal cells?
not in all cases, however, but yes
When cells are not responding to normal controls over growth and division they form a tissue mass known as?
tumor
Is there chance to form as tumor from normal cells grown in dish?
There is a chance that normal cell that grow in disk can become tumors. This chance is slim.
