What is the process through which cells normally die How are cancer cells different?
Cells normally die through a regulated process called apoptosis, or programmed cell death, where they undergo a series of biochemical events leading to cell shrinkage, DNA fragmentation, and ultimately elimination by immune cells. This process is crucial for maintaining tissue homeostasis and removing damaged or unnecessary cells. In contrast, cancer cells often evade apoptosis, allowing them to survive and proliferate uncontrollably due to mutations that disrupt the apoptotic pathways. This resistance to cell death contributes to tumor growth and the persistence of cancerous cells in the body.

Metastasis occurs because?
Metastasis occurs because cancer cells are able to break away from the primary tumor, invade nearby tissues, and travel through the bloodstream or lymphatic system to other parts of the body where they form new tumors. This process allows cancer to spread and grow in different areas of the body.
Does the Tropic of Cancer pass through Niger?
No, the River Niger does not cut the Tropic of Cancer.
How is the behaviour of cancer cells different from that normal cells?
Cancer cells have the ability to grow and divide uncontrollably, whereas normal cells grow and divide in a regulated manner. Cancer cells can also invade surrounding tissues and spread to other parts of the body, a process known as metastasis, which normal cells do not do. Additionally, cancer cells may evade the body's immune system and resist cell death signals that would normally eliminate damaged cells.
Tropic of cancer passes through Which which district of chhattisgarh?
The Tropic of Cancer passes through the Surajpur district of Chhattisgarh.
What east Asian island nation does the Tropic of Cancer pass through?
The Tropic of Cancer passes through Taiwan. The capital of Taiwan is Taipei.
Is cancer spread through the body through a process called melanoma?
No , its actually called metastasis.
Can Brain Cancer run in the family?
Not normally.
How accurately do blood test detect cancer?
If you are asking if your blood can get cancer then No. Cancer cannot be found in blood although it can move into the bloodstream through certain forms of cancer i.e stomach cancer. Cancer is usually in the form of a tumor therefore it has to be on a part of the body.
How does metastasis occur?
Metastasis can occur during any type of cancer. It can happen early on or not at all. It is the spread of cancer through different organs.
How does cancer spread in the body?
Cancer can spread in the body through a process called metastasis, where cancer cells break away from the original tumor, travel through the bloodstream or lymphatic system, and form new tumors in other parts of the body. Metastatic cancer is more difficult to treat and is often associated with a poorer prognosis.
How does head and neck cancer kill you?
There is no such thing as "head" or "neck" cancer. Cancer is general term for the abnormal multiplying of cells because of a mutation in their DNA ie- a tumor( although, not all tumors are caused by cancer). Cancer can be fatal for many different reasons, but generally it is because tumors cause the organs that they are in to not function normally. When a tumor is contained it can usually be removed but the problem is, it can travel to other parts of your body through the "lymphatic system" which is called "metastasizing" Once this as occurred, a persons chances drop.
Metastasis occurs because?
Metastasis occurs because cancer cells are able to break away from the primary tumor, invade nearby tissues, and travel through the bloodstream or lymphatic system to other parts of the body where they form new tumors. This process allows cancer to spread and grow in different areas of the body.
Do more people die from skin cancer or lung cancer?
Lung cancer is the leading cause of death in people with cancer. People normally die from smoking then getting lung cancer.
What are the cancer cells called that break free and travel?
Cancer cells that break free and travel to other parts of the body through the bloodstream or lymphatic system are called metastatic cancer cells.
How long after you smock do you get cancer?
yes normally people would
Why is it important to know how cells divide when studying cancer?
I am no expert, but I remember very clearly his section of my biology class. Basically, cells go through a few phases when they divide. Once a cell has officially replicated itself, it goes through a checking process to make sure that the new cell has the proper genetic make up and that no mistakes were made in the replication process. In cancer cells, this process is skipped. The "healthy" cells make "unhealthy" cancer cells, but don't realize it. The healthy cell then dies off because there is a cell to replace it. However, the cell taking its place is a cancer cell. The cancer cell then divides and makes more cancer cells. This is how cancer grows and replaces healthy tissue. Also, because the cells don't take the time to make sure the cell was replicated properly in the cancer process, the cancer cells grow faster because they don't stop to double check that their growth is proper.
What are of different kinds of cancer?
There are many different types of cancers in the world. There are cancers such as bladder cancer, Breast cancer, endometrial cancer, colon cancer, kidney cancer, thyroid caner and many others.
