Cell Cycle Check Points Flashcards
Meaning of Cancer
Cancer is a group of cells with abnormal genetic material that are dividing uncontrollably and can spread to other body parts
A benign tumor
•A benign tumor is a growth that does not invade nearby tissue or spread to other parts of the body; they can be serious if they press on vital structuresNormal
Mutations
Mutations can occur for no particular reason; however, most are

Cell cycle check points that check normal growth and development
three checkpoints are:
1.There are not enough nutrients to support cell growth
2.The DNA has not replicated
3.The DNA is damaged (Mutations
