Abstract:
Cancer is a class of diseases characterized by out-of-control cell growth. There are
over 100 different types of cancer, and each is classified by the type of cell that is
initially affected.Cancer harms the body when damaged cells divide uncontrollably to
form lumps or masses of tissue called tumors (except in the case of leukemia where
cancer prohibits normal blood function by abnormal cell division in the blood
stream). Tumors can grow and interfere with the digestive, nervous, and circulatory
systems, and they can release hormones that alter body function. Tumors that stay in
one spot and demonstrate limited growth are generally considered to be benign.
