When an oncogene is turned on and is not balanced through suppression
of tumor suppressor gene, the normal
cells become cancerous and divides unregulated.
Normal cells differentiate while cancer cells do not. Additionally,
while normal cells respond to endocrine
and paracrine signals from neighboring cells, cancer
cells do not. Cancer cells have malfunctioned
apoptosis process due to a malfunctioned p53
tumor suppressor gene. Therefore they
continue to divide even when they have damage to their DNA. Cancer cells metastasize because, unlike normal cells, they do not produce an adhesive molecule that allows the cells to adhere to one another to form tissue.

The dry prairies in Florida are the primary habitats of low shrubs and grasses. The area lacks trees because of naturally occurring fires, and it also holds the rain water for longer period of time, which inhibits the growth of pine trees. It is a habitat for some rare animals including, Florida burrowing owls, Federally threatened crested caracaras, and <span>endangered grasshopper sparrows. </span>
