Answer 2

Apopstosis is a form of cell death in which a programmed sequence of events leads to the elimination of cells without releasing harmful substances into the surrounding area. Apoptosis plays a crucial role in developing and maintaining the health of the body by eliminating old cells, unnecessary cells, and unhealthy cells.

Answer 3

Growth inhibition or contact inhibition is the phenomenon in which the growth of a cell stops on coming in contact with other surrounding cell. This mechanism check the overgrowth of cells and keeps them normal. Cancer cells do not respond to this mechanism and grow invasively.

Answer 4

Metastasis is the process by which cancer spreads from the place at which it first arose as a primary tumor to distant locations in the body. The tumor reaches different locations and start secondary growth. Such tumors are called as Malignant tumors.
