Cancer is a disease that affects and kills many Canadians. Define the disease and list two factors that may cause this disease. Using the correct terminology describes why a cancerous cell may reproduce uncontrollably. Why is it important to diagnose cancer early?

A disease in which abnormal cells divide uncontrollably and destroy body tissue.

Explanation:

The fundamental abnormality resulting in the development of cancer is the continual unregulated proliferation of cancer cells. Rather than responding appropriately to the signals that control normal cell behavior, cancer cells grow and divide in an uncontrolled manner, invading normal tissues and organs and eventually spreading throughout the body. The generalized loss of growth control exhibited by cancer cells is the net result of accumulated abnormalities in multiple cell regulatory systems and is reflected in several aspects of cell behavior that distinguish cancer cells from their normal counterparts.
