Detailed explanation-1: -Cancer is the result of unchecked cell division caused by a breakdown of the mechanisms regulating the cell cycle. The loss of control begins with a change in the DNA sequence of a gene that codes for one of the regulatory molecules. Faulty instructions lead to a protein that does not function as it should.
Detailed explanation-2: -Cancer is unchecked cell growth. Mutations in genes can cause cancer by accelerating cell division rates or inhibiting normal controls on the system, such as cell cycle arrest or programmed cell death. As a mass of cancerous cells grows, it can develop into a tumor.
Detailed explanation-3: -Definition. 00:00. … Cancer is a disease in which some of the body’s cells grow uncontrollably. There are many different types of cancer, and each begins when a single cell acquires a genomic change (or mutation) that allows the cell to divide and multiply unchecked.
Detailed explanation-4: -Mitosis occurs infinitely. The cells never die in cancer, as cancer cells can utilize telomerase to add many telomeric sections to the ends of DNA during DNA replication, allowing the cells to live much longer than other somatic cells. [3] With this mechanism, cancer cells that usually die simply continue to divide.
Detailed explanation-5: -With increasing cell growth, cancer cells spread or infiltrate to involve other organs, displacing normal tissue and severely depleting nutrient and metabolic resources, which results in death either from cancer cachexia or from mechanical disruption of normal organ function.
