Benign tumor

Malignant tumor
C
Metastatic tumor
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Benign tumors are those that stay in their primary location without invading other sites of the body. They do not spread to local structures or to distant parts of the body. Benign tumors tend to grow slowly and have distinct borders. Benign tumors are not usually problematic.

Detailed explanation-2: -Noncancerous: Benign tumors are not cancerous and are rarely life-threatening. They’re localized, which means they don’t typically affect nearby tissue or spread to other parts of the body.

Detailed explanation-3: -Benign tumors aren’t cancerous and are usually not life-threatening. But like their malignant cousins, they develop when cells grow abnormally, and they may form anywhere in the body, though benign cells don’t typically invade nearby tissue or spread-they’re contained to the tumor.

Detailed explanation-4: -Lipomas: Lipomas are formed by fat cells. They are the most common type of benign tumor. Meningiomas: These tumors develop in the brain and spinal cord membranes and are most commonly benign. Nevi: These noncancerous growths are more typically known as moles and appear on the skin.

Detailed explanation-5: -Even though most benign tumors are harmless and can be left alone, it’s important they be monitored. And any tumor that is painful or growing requires a visit to the doctor.
