Why is cancer more prevalent in older individuals?
◦ Cancer cells form at a faster rate.
◦ More mutations develop with age.
◦ The protective action of cytotoxic T cells breaks down with age.
◦ Cancers learn to disguise themselves as "self" with time.
◦ Older people tend to be exposed to more dangerous chemicals.
