Cancerous cells possess defects that make proteins required for cell growth active and tumor suppressor genes inactive.
A non-cancerous abnormal cell is called a benign cell. Benign cells can form growths or tumors that do not invade surrounding tissues or spread to other parts of the body, unlike malignant (cancerous) cells. While benign tumors can still cause health issues depending on their size and location, they are generally considered less harmful than cancerous tumors.
The word squamous refers to the shape of the cell - it means scale shaped and refers to cells that bulge in the middle and taper at the ends. There are many types of cells that are squamous cells. As such, there is no particular protein that is characteristic of squamous cells. They will possess the same set of thousands of basic housekeeping proteins that any cell will possess and supplemented with the dozens or hundreds of proteins that make them a particular kind of squamous cell.
If mitosis goes wrong, cancerous cells forms.
Yes, squamous cell mucosa of the esophagus can develop into squamous cell carcinoma through a process called dysplasia. This involves abnormal changes in cells that can progress to become cancerous if left untreated. Regular monitoring and early detection can help prevent this progression.
The two types of cells that can become any cell are embryonic stem cells and induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs). Embryonic stem cells are derived from early-stage embryos and possess the ability to differentiate into any cell type in the body. Induced pluripotent stem cells, on the other hand, are adult somatic cells that have been genetically reprogrammed to revert to a pluripotent state, allowing them to develop into various cell types as well. Both types hold significant potential for regenerative medicine and research.
A cancerous cell.
Most cancerous tumors are detected at advanced phase of the cell cycle.
no
Radiation
Dysplasia
No, sickle cell disease is not cancerous.
A normal cell turns cancerous when there is damage between a few of the genes that are in control of cell growth. These cells will eventually invade the blood supply and kill the host.

no. i would estimate a cell needs thousands per cell, depending on cell function. remember, different cell types have different functions, so they possess different suites of enzymes and express different genes.
oncogene
malignant tumor
well one relationship that i know of is that the cancerous cell is what mainly causes the tumor to happen depending on what type of cancer you have
