Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A single mutation is not enough to change a normal cell into a cancer cell: most cancers develop gradually from a single aberrant cell by the accumulation of a number of genetic and epigenetic changes over time. Treatment is generally easier if the cancer is diagnosed at earlier stages. Some cancers can be induced by infectious agents.
