Cancer cells are cells that basically bypass any sort of regulatory processes in the cell cycle (and mitosis - the splitting of the cell). This leads to uncontrollable cell growth/duplication which hence leads to more and more cancerous cells. Cancer itself is so hard to cure for a couple of different reasons. If the cells are in the form of a benign tumor, that is a tumor that does not spread from its original infected tissue, it should be "easy" to remove with surgery. However, if it metastasizes, or spreads into surrounding tissues through the lymph or blood systems, then it becomes even harder to remove because of its far reach and complex structure. Also, cancer cells can be simply described as normal body cells that have gone rogue. That being said, things such as antibiotics, that are designed to get rid of foreign bodies, cannot get rid of cancerous cells without getting rid of most of your regular body cells as well simply because they cannot tell the difference.
Hope this helps :)

Legionnaires disease is a type of lung inflammatory disease or pneumonia, which is caused by infection from the bacteria Legionella bacterium.
Legionella bacterium can be spread by inhalation from water or soil. People with weakened immune systems are most susceptible as are smokers. Untreated legionnaires disease can progress to a fatality.
Some of the questions to ask of a victim or of surviving relatives include;
1) Any visits to swimming pools?
2) Source of drinking water?
3)Any visits to fountains?
4) Contacts with victims and their personal belongings?
5)Is any relative or victim immunocompromised? Do they have diseases that might lower their immune response?
6) Are they smokers?
Answer:
Because double bonds cause the hydrocarbon chain to bend. Therefore, the fatty acids cannot compact tightly together, reducing the van der Waals interaction between the fatty acids. The melting point of fatty acids is also affected by chain length. The longer the hydrocarbon chain is, the higher the melting point.
