Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Adhesion proteins are typically dysfunctional in malignant neoplasms, whereas they are still functional in benign neoplasms. This lack of adhesion allows malignant cells to detach from their primary site and invade other tissues, leading to metastasis. Oncogenes, centrioles, prophase, and DNA polymerase can all still be functional in both benign and malignant neoplasms.
