Answer/Explanation:
Normal cell division is a very controlled process.
There are several checkpoints where the cell ensures the cell is:
- receiving the correct signals to divide
- that the environmental conditions are favourable for the cell to divide
- that there is no damage to the DNA.
However, cancerous cells proliferate uncontrollably. This is because they can bypass the checkpoints and divide without the necessary signals. This means cell division keeps occurring even when conditions are unfavourable and the DNA is damaged.
