uncontrollably‚ and do not die the way normal cells do. As the cells produce more cells‚ a mass or tumor may appear. The tumor can invade surrounding tissue and keep the healthy tissue from doing its normal job. There are two kinds of tumors: * Benign tumors are not life threatening. They do not invade other tissues and when they are removed they very seldom return. * Malignant tumors are cancerous. These tumors contain cells that divide and grow without order. The cells will invade and take over nearby

Cancer is a dangerous disease that is caused by an uncontrolled group of abnormal cells in the body. Cancerous cells‚ also known as malignant tumors or neoplasm‚ begin to divide without stopping and invade surrounding tissues. The body is made up of trillions of cells‚ which means cancer can start from almost anywhere in the body. Human cells grow and divide to form new cells continuously. When cells grow old or become damaged they die and new cells are formed to take their place. This process

Brain tumors can be malignant or benign‚ both being dangerous when it comes to the brain. When a brain cancer is malignant‚ it could potentially invade and destroy important tissues and cells. These malignant tumors can also spread to other parts of the body. However‚ benign tumors are very slow-growing cells‚ which hardly ever spread

yourself a case of acoustic neuroma. The resulting tumor from the uncontrolled growth of cells is benign‚ meaning that it isn’t cancerous (which would be malignant). Benign tumors grow only in one spot‚ do not spread or “invade” other parts of your body‚ and do not usually grow back after treatment.

The tumors associated with acoustic neuroma normally grow slowly

Christopher Scott Biol 241 homework Professor: Greg Crowther 1. Compare and contrast the reasons cell division is important for unicellular and multicellular organisms. Cell division is the method in which single celled organisms reproduce. Cell division allows multi-cellular to grow and repair dead or damaged cells 2. Provide an example of why cell division remains important to an adult organism even after it isfully developed. Some cells divide to heal wounds such as cuts or broken bones.
