Question

Which of the following is true of cancer cells? Choose all that apply.

A. Cancer cells can only result during the process of menows
B. Oncogenes are likely to be irvolved in the regulation of the ceil crese
C, Most cancers are a result of spontaneous mutavons
D. Benign cancer celis can transition into metastanc cancer cells.

Answer 1

Cancer cells arise from accumulated mutations including those affecting oncogenes and tumor-suppressor genes which regulate cell division; not all cancers come from spontaneous mutations. Benign tumors can indeed become metastatic cancer cells. option B, C and D are correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Answering the question regarding the truths about cancer cells, not all instances are true. Here is a clarification of each statement:

• Cancer cells result from a process involving multiple steps, not just one process like meiosis (menows). The typing error 'menows' seems like a misinterpretation of 'meiosis,' which is incorrect in this context.
• Oncogenes and tumor-suppressor genes are crucial in the regulation of cell division and growth, which can become dysregulated in cancer cells.
• While spontaneous mutations can lead to cancer, most cancers result from a series of accumulated mutations rather than spontaneous ones alone.
• Benign cancer cells can, indeed, transition into metastatic cancer cells through a process known as malignancy progression and metastasis.
