Abstract

Benign and malign tumors are clone expansions of differentiated cells with proliferation and adaption assets and resist control by organism. Malign tumors form secondary tumors by the displacement of cancerigenous cells from one place to another in the metastases process. The latter are the result of good adaptation of cancerigenous cells in the new microenvironment requiring adaptive qualities of cells from the originating tumor and from the place in which the secondary tumor has installed itself.
