Following broutine bcolonoscopy bscreening, ba bclient bis btold bthat bhe bhad bseveral
bpolyps bremoved. bThe bclient bbegan bcrying bstating, b"I bjust bcan't bdeal bwith bcancer.
bI'm btoo byoung." bThe bnurse bresponds:
A) b"Don't bworry. bWe bhave bsome bgreat bcancer bdoctors bon bstaff. bI'm bsure bchemo
bwill bhelp byou bfight bit."
B) b"Maybe bif byou're blucky, bthey bhave bstopped bit bfrom bmetastasizing bto byour bliver."

Feedback: bCancer bin bsitu bis ba blocalized bpreinvasive blesion. bAs ban bexample, bin
bbreast bductal bcarcinoma, bin bsitu bthe bcells bhave bnot bcrossed bthe bbasement

While bstudying bto bbecome bchemo-certified, bthe bnurse breviews bsome bbasic
bconcepts babout bcancer bcells. bWhen ba bclient basks babout bwhy bthe btumor bgrows bso
bfast, bthe bnurse bwill brespond bbased bon bwhich bof bthe bfollowing bphysiological
bprinciples? bSelect ball bthat bapply. b
A) bCancer bcells bhave bshorter bcell bcycle btimes bthan bnormal bcells. b
B) bCancer bcells bdo bnot bdie bwhen bthey bare bprogrammed bto bdie. b
C) bGrowth bfactors bprevents bcancer bcells bfrom bentering bresting b(G0) bcell bcycle

D) bCancer bcells bwill breach ba bbalance bbetween bcell bbirth band bcell bdeath brate. b

,E) bCancer bcells bnever breach ba bflattened bgrowth brate. b- bcorrect banswers✔✔Ans:
bB, bC b


Feedback: bOne bof bthe breasons bcancerous btumors boften bseem bto bgrow bso brapidly
brelates bto bthe bsize bof bthe bcell bpool bthat bis bactively bengaged bin bcycling. bIt bhas
bbeen bshown bthat bthe bcell bcycle btime bof bcancerous btissue bcells bis bnot bnecessarily
bshorter bthan bthat bof bnormal bcells. bRather, bcancer bcells bdo bnot bdie bon bschedule,
band bgrowth bfactors bprevent bcells bfrom bexiting bthe bcell bcycle band bentering bthe bG0
bor bnoncycling bphase. bThe bratio bof bdividing bcells bto bresting bcells bin ba btissue bmass
bis bcalled bthe bgrowth bfraction. bThe bdoubling btime bis bthe blength bof btime bit btakes
bfor bthe btotal bmass bof bcells bin ba btumor bto bdouble. bAs bthe bgrowth bfraction
bincreases, bthe bdoubling btime bdecreases. bWhen bnormal btissues breach btheir badult
bsize, ban bequilibrium bbetween bcell bbirth band bcell bdeath bis breached. bCancer bcells,
bhowever, bcontinue bto bdivide buntil blimitations bin bblood bsupply band bnutrients binhibit
btheir bgrowth. bWhen bthis boccurs, bthe bdoubling btime bfor bcancer bcells bdecreases.
bThe binitial bgrowth brate bis bexponential band bthen btends bto bdecrease bor bflatten bout
