What i Learned

I learn a lot of things from this Cancer Project. Some of the things I learned from this are:
1)Malignant- a tumor that is cancerous
2)Benign- a tumor that is not cancerous
3)Carcinogens-chemicals that are know to either stimulate cancer or cause cancer
4)Metastasis- how cancer spreads through the body
5)Cancer cells produce much more rapidly then normal cells.
some things that i like about this project was using the Google docs and being able to see how your partners are doing in the project and another would be that you can chat on there if your partners are on at the same time as you.
i think the only question that i have that didn't get answered was why do cancer cells reproduce faster then the normal cell? i know that cancer cells don't have certain checkpoints but do they only miss that checkpoint or do they just reproduce with no checkpoints at all?
