Cancer cells differ from normal cells in many ways; these various differences allow them to grow out of control. Unlike normal cells, cancer cells have an unstoppable growth rate which causes them to divide continuously. They are also able to ignore signals from the body that would normally command healthy cells to die after a certain period of time. Cancer cells are able to influence normal cells allowing them to extract the materials needed in order to grow as tumors. Cancer cells, unlike normal cells are able to hide from the immune system. Normal, healthy cells have a large cytoplasm, unlike cancer cells who have a relatively small cytoplasm. Healthy cells will always have a single nucleus and a cancer
