Cancer

Question

Which of the following is a characteristic feature of malignant tumours?

Easy

A

Contact inhibition
B

Anchorage dependence
C

Metastasis
D

Apoptosis

Cells sloughed from malignant tumors reach distant sites through blood, and wherever they get lodged in the body, they start a new tumor there. This property is called metastasis and it is the most feared property of malignant tumors.
Cancer cells lack contact inhibition, anchorage dependence and evade apoptosis.
