Cancers: Develops over time and can result from different causes.
Cancer: Can occur in any age and any location.
Smoking and Exposure to Sun: Increase a person's risk for developing cancer.
Heredity: Contributes to the development of cancer.
Survival Rate: Indicates a person's likelihood of surviving s diagnosis of cancer.
Mortality Rate: Is the chance of not surviving.
Benign: Means the tumor is not cancerous.
Old Men: Most likely to develop cancer.
Cancer Cells: Multiply rapidly, taking up space and nutrients from the normal cells.
Cigarette Smoke: Substance that is known to damage genes that regulate the growth of normal cells and tissues.
Breakdown: Cancer results from _____ of normal cell division and growth.
Genes: Regulate the cell growth cycle (Normal Cell Growth).
Damaged Genes: Cause cancer cells to divide more rapidly than they normally should.

Fair Skinned: This type of skinned people have a greater risk of developing skin cancer than people who do not this type of skin.
Prevented: Most skin cancer would be _____ if children were to wear a hat and clothing designed to protect their skin when outside during the peak hours of UV exposure.
Laws and Public Policies: As a result of cancer many risk factors for developing cancer have been identified. ___ and _____ _____ could be mandated to force people to avoid the risk factors but many people are against this because it would take away individual freedom and autonomy.
