Besides the ability of some cancer cells to over proliferate, what else could logically result in a tumor?
Correct answer: A. Metastasis
- A. Metastasis
- B. Changes in the order of cell cycle stages
- C. Lack of appropriate cell death
- D. Inability to form spindles
Explanation
In addition to over-proliferation, metastasis is indeed another logical consequence that could result from the development of a tumor. Metastasis is the process by which cancer cells spread from the primary site of the tumor to other parts of the body, where they establish secondary tumors.
