What is a cancer cell?
A cancer cell is a cell that has undergone genetic mutations, causing it to divide and grow uncontrollably. These cells can form tumors and invade nearby tissues, leading to the development of cancer. Cancer cells have the ability to spread to other parts of the body through the bloodstream or lymphatic system, a process known as metastasis. These cells can evade the body's immune system and resist treatments such as chemotherapy and radiation therapy, making them particularly harmful and difficult to eradicate.
