Tumor
1. Define (associate the 9 characteristics/features of each)
Benign:
Specific morphology – resemble the tissues they originated from
A smaller nuclear-to-cytoplasmic ratio – similar to normal cells
Specific differentiated function – contributes to the body function
Tight adherence - bind closely together due to the production of fibronectin
No migration – do not invade other tissues
Orderly growth – rate of growth is normal by expansion
Euploidy – normal chromosomes per cell
Malignant tumor:
Anaplasia – loss of appearance of parent cell
A larger nuclear-to-cytoplasmic ratio – larger nucleus
Specific functions are lost – serve no purpose
Loose adherence – loosely bound due to the lack of fibronectin production
Migration – spread easily (metastasize)
Contact inhibition does not occur – loss of cellular regulation
Rapid or continuous cell division – loss of cellular regulation
Aneuploidy – Abnormal chromosomes
