Normal Cells Vs. Cancer Cells

What is a key difference between cancer cells and normal cells in terms of growth?

• Cancer cells grow uncontrollably, forming tumors.

• Normal cells grow uncontrollably, forming tumors.

• Cancer cells grow in a controlled manner.

• Normal cells grow in an uncontrolled manner.

Why do cancer cells often survive longer than they should?

• They resist apoptosis, avoiding programmed cell death.

• They undergo apoptosis more frequently.

• They have a shorter lifespan than normal cells.

• They are more susceptible to damage.

How do normal cells communicate to maintain the body's balance?

• Through chemical signals to coordinate growth and function.

• By ignoring chemical signals.

• By forming tumors.

• Through genetic mutations.

What is a major challenge in treating cancer cells?

• Their resistance to apoptosis.

• Their ability to undergo apoptosis easily.

• Their short lifespan.

• Their controlled growth.

What can the loss of communication in cancer cells lead to?

• Metastasis, where cancer spreads to other parts of the body.

• Controlled growth and function.

• Increased apoptosis.

• Formation of healthy tissues.
