Cancer is Uncontrolled Mitosis. Cells that no longer respond properly to cell cycle controls often undergo unrestrained cell division forming abnormal tissues called tumors. If these tumor cells stay within the abnormal tissue, then they are deemed benign and may not harm the individual. However, if the tumor cells invade neighboring tissues and spread to other areas of the body where they can form new tumors, then this type of tumor is called malignant and can adversely affect the affected...
