what is the stimulus for the conversion of normal cells to malignant cells? - Answer-Carcinogenesis, also called oncogenesis or tumorigenesis, is the formation of a cancer, whereby normal cells are transformed into cancer cells. The process is characterized by changes at the cellular, genetic, and epigenetic levels and abnormal cell division. Oncogenes start the reproduction process, suppressor genes halt cellular reproduction benign vs malignant cells - Answer-BENIGN: does not spread cont...
