Across
  1. 3. Cell Division When normal regulatory pacing breaks down, causing cells to divide rapidly and continuously without stopping.
  2. 5. A mass of cells resulting from rapid, continuous, and abnormal tissue growth that can be localized or invasive
  3. 6. A localized, non-cancerous mass of tissue that stays contained within clear borders and does not spread to other parts of the body.
  4. 8. Changes or errors in the DNA sequence that can alter how a cell functions or how it responds to internal and external regulatory signals.
  5. 9. The active growth and preparation phase of the cell cycle consisting of cell growth (G_1), DNA replication (S), and final preparation for division (G_2).

  1. 1. A mass of cells resulting from rapid, continuous, and abnormal tissue growth that is invasive.
  2. 2. Regulatory stop-signs in the cell cycle that inspect DNA for damage and ensure proper conditions before allowing the cell to move forward.
  3. 4. Chemical signals or hormones in the body that can abnormally trigger or disrupt cell growth and division.
  4. 7. A resting state where cells carry out normal daily functions and are not actively dividing.
