What is Cancer?
(25886 Views)
What is cancer? All cancers begin in cells, the body's basic unit of life. This video will help you understand how cancer cells occur in the human body. Cells grow and divide in a controlled way to produce as many cells as are needed to keep the body healthy. When cells get old or damaged, they die and are replaced with new ones. Sometimes, this process can go wrong, damaging the body's genetic fingerprint called DNA and mutating into cancer cells that may cause tumors. Medics speak of a malignant tumor or carcinoma.

What is cancer?, well I now know after watching this very insightful video. I never knew it were all down to cells that keeps either our bodies healthy or in-fact damaging our bodies.
Very well put together, I've learnt something new.
