BCancer cells grow controllably

CCancer cells attach to organs

DCancer cells lose nutrients to healthy cells

Verified Answer :

C. Cancer cells attach to organs

Answer:

The correct answer would be option C. cancer cells attach to organs.

Explanation:

Cells that divide uncontrollably, flooding the blood with abnormal cells or forming tumors. Cell division is a process used by the cell for growth and repair.

A series of mutations or any carcinogens (agents cause cancer) cause a normal cell to be cancerous.

Cancer cells and normal cells are different because of they:

are immature and don’t develop into mature cells

divide out of control

ignore signals that tell them to stop dividing or apoptosis

avoid the immune system

grow into and damage tissues and organs.

Thus, the correct answer is option C.
