In cancerous cells, the normal programming to undergo apoptosis may not be activated due to the nonreception of proapoptotic signals, the decrease or lack of synthesis of proapoptotic signals, the increase in the synthesis of antiapoptotic signals, or a combination of all of these.

How do cancer cells affect healthy cells?

Cancer cells can disrupt the normal function of healthy cells by competing for nutrients and oxygen, secreting harmful substances that damage surrounding tissue, and evading the immune system. They can also create a crowded environment that hinders the function of healthy cells and promotes inflammation and cell division.


What types of cells divide the least often?

Answer: The internal lining of your digestive tract. Explanation: The internal lining of your digestive tract receives a lot of wear and tear. As a result, cells that line your stomach and intestine are replaced every few days. In contrast, cells that make up the rest of your intestine (mainly smooth muscle) and many of your internal organs, such as lungs, kidney, and liver, divide only occasionaly, in respons to injury or cell death.


Uncontrolled cell division can result in what?

a uncontrolled divion in the cell may increase the amount of cells at a super fast rate, this will inturn form a giant being, with it being divion cells which were formed in the depths of the volcano of azerath, they will surley build up into a reincarnation of a t-rex with the powers of harry potter. With the t-rexes magical powers he will conquer us all and the world will result in an armogeddon.

Why do some cancer medications sometimes weaken the immune system of cancer patients?

The radiation kills bone marrow, where both red and white blood cells are made. The white blood cells produce most of the immune system, with fewer white blood cells the immune system weakens.

Does cancer cells mean you have cancer?

Technically, yes, if you have cancerous cells in your body, you do have some cancer. However, if it is only a few cancerous cells, and they haven't targeted any organs yet, they are generally easy to remove. Basically, cancer cells are mutated cells that start somewhere, and multiply at a faster rate than normal cells, and will form a tumor These cells will eventually go into the blood stream, and target an organ such as the liver, where they will begin multiplying into another tumor, and so on. So, as long as these cancer cells have not yet reached the blood stream, simply removing the tumor will get rid of the cancerous cells, as the cells are only, presently, skin deep.


Can ducks produce chlorophyll?

No, only plants, algea, photosynthetic protists, and cyanobacteria undergo photosynthesis. Ducks are animals, so they have animal cells. Animal cells are do not have the organelles possible for photosynthesis.

Why dont all mutations cause cancer?

Not all mutations cause cancer because our cells have mechanisms in place to repair damaged DNA, preventing mutations from accumulating or causing harm. Additionally, mutations must occur in specific genes that regulate cell growth and division in order to lead to cancer. The body also has mechanisms to detect and eliminate cells with harmful mutations before they can develop into cancer.
