Cancer

If a problem is detected during a checkpoint in the cell cycle that cannot be fixed, the cell will go through programmed cell death which is known as:

• Apoptosis

• Mitosis

• Interphase

• Development

Cancer cells divide:

• Less often than normal cells

• Much more often than normal cells

• At the same speed as normal cells

Cancer cells:

• Spend most of their time in interphase

• Spend most of their time in the

  G-0 Phase

• Spend most of their time in mitosis

• Spend an even amount of time in each phase of the cell cycle

Harmless tumors are known as

• Malignant

• Benign

• No tumors are harmless

• Nucleic Acids

Carcinogens are:

• Have no effect on cancer

• Cancer curing

• Cancer causing

Cancer cells that break away and form another tumor are called

• Benign

• Carcinogens

• Malignant

• Lipids

Cancer is a result of:

• A bacteria

• Volume

• Gene mutation
