A factor in the environment that can alter DNA sequence and cause cancer
cancer
The term where tumors attract blood vessels to itself to help supply nutrients and remove waste
angiogenesis
The term for "programmed cell death"
mutations in DNA
The best initial type of cancer therapy for a tumor mass is usually
surgery
This can result from uncontrolled cell growth
contact inhibition
Cancer cells arise from

Chromosomes become visible and nucleus begins to dissolve.
Chromosomes are split and moved to opposite sides of the cell.
The cell begins to split, and two new nuclei begin to form.
Chromosomes attach to spindle fibers and align along the center of the cell.
Prophase
Metaphase
Anaphase
Telophase
