Answer 2

Cancer is essentially uncontrolled division of cells due to breakdown of regulatory mechanisms.

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal cells show a property called contact inhibition, in which, the dividing cells when in contact with other cells, inhibit their uncontrolled growth but cancer cells do not have this property. Therefore, cancerous cells continue to divide giving rise to mass of cells called tumors. Tumors can be benign i.e. it remains confined to their original location and do not spread or tumors can be malignant i.e. tumor grow and invade the surrounding tissue. malignant tumors reach distant sites through blood and the process is called metastasis.
