Answer to Question 1

B

Answer to Question 2

B
Feedback:
Malignant cells have lost the normal genetic regulation that controls cell growth, invading normal tissues and taking blood and nutrients away from these tissues. They grow in an uncontrolled fashion without regard to growth regulation signals (e.g., contact with other cells) that stop the growth of normal cells. Cancerous cells, like all cells, have a finite lifespan and need energy. Cancerous cells are responsive to drugs; this is the rationale for treatment with antineoplastics.
