Detailed Solution

Metastasis is the spread of cancer cells from the original tumor site to other parts of the body and is the most feared property of malignant tumors. The cells of malignant tumors grow very rapidly. These cancer cells break away from the primary tumor and travel through the bloodstream or lymphatic system to form secondary tumors in other parts of the body. Metastasis is the primary reason why malignant tumors are dangerous and can lead to serious health problems.
Benign tumors normally remain confined to their original location and do not spread to other parts of the body and cause little damage. They do not pose a threat to life.
