What is cancer?
The body is made up of trillions of living cells. Normal body, cells grow divide into new
cells and die,, In an orderly way. During the early years of a person 's life while they, are still
growing their normal, cells divide faster.? Once the person becomes, an adult most cells
divide only to replace worn-out or dying cells or to repair injuries.
.Cancer begins when cells in a part of the body start to grow out of control. There are many
kinds of cancer but they, all. Start because of out-of-control growth of abnormal cells.
Cancer cell growth is different from normal cell growth. Instead. Of, dying cancer cells
continue to grow and, form new abnormal cells. In most cases the cancer cells form a tumor.
.Cancer cells can also invade (grow into), other tissues something that normal cells cannot do.
Growing out of control and. Invading other tissues are what makes a cell a cancer cell.
Cells become cancer cells because of damage to DNA. DNA is in. Every cell and directs all its
actions. In a, normal cell when DNA is damaged the cell either repairs the damage or the. Cell
dies In, cancer cells.The damaged DNA is, not repaired but the cell doesn 't die like it should.
Instead this cell, goes on making new cells that. The body does not need. These new cells will
all have the same damaged DNA as the first abnormal cell does.
People can inherit. Damaged DNA but most, often the DNA damage is caused by mistakes
.That happen while the normal cell is reproducing or by something in our environment.
Sometimes the cause of the DNA damage. Is, something obvious like cigarette smoking. But
often no clear cause is found.
Cancer cells often travel to other parts. Of the body where they, begin to grow and form new
tumors that replace normal tissue. This process is called, metastasis. It happens when the
.Cancer cells get into the bloodstream or lymph vessels of our body.
No matter where a cancer, may spread it is always named. For the place where it started. For
example breast cancer, that has spread to the liver is still called, breast cancer not. Liver cancer.
