What is the effect of cancer on mitosis?

Answer 1

Cancer can cause the rapid and uncontrolled mitosis of cells affected by cancer.

The process of mitosis is normally regulated by blocks and inhibitors. When a cell dies, its neighboring cells undergo mitosis to replace it, and the process of mitosis ends when the dead cell is replaced.

The DNA segments that are meant to regulate the rate of mutation are damaged by mutations and deletions in cancer, allowing cancer cells to divide indefinitely and give rise to tumors.
