In simple terms, cancer is defined as the uncontrolled growth of abnormal cells.Many types of leukemia exist. Some forms of leukemia are more common in children. Other forms of leukemia occur mostly in adults. Leukemia usually involves the white blood cells. Bone marrow makes blood cells so if theyŕe negatively affected by cancer, new blood cells cannot be created leading to only abnormal cells remaining. All cancers do not regulate the Cell Cycle and that is how they are all similar. New cells aren’t created so only the abnormal cells are left.
