Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Cancer is an uncontrolled growth of cells leading to phenotypic expression in many forms, from mild to life-threatening. Cancer can develop in many ways, either from DNA damage, a mutation in the DNA or any product of that DNA, or by loss of function of the regulatory and repressor systems in the cycle.[9]

Detailed explanation-2: -Usually, cells die when they get too old or damaged. Then, new cells take their place. Cancer begins when genetic changes interfere with this orderly process. Cells start to grow uncontrollably. These cells may form a mass called a tumor.

Detailed explanation-3: -Tumors, including cancers, are caused by abnormal cells that multiply continuously. If the abnormal cells continue to divide unstopped, they can damage the tissues around them, spread to other parts of the body (malignancy), and even result in death.
