Question

cancer cells
○ have a slow mitotic rate.
○ generally form benign tumors.
○ do not form neoplasms.
○ may exhibit metastasis.
○ are indistinguishable from normal body cells.

Explanation:

• Analyze each option:
• Cancer cells have a fast mitotic rate (not slow), so the first option is incorrect.
• Cancer cells generally form malignant tumors (benign tumors are non - cancerous or less aggressive), so the second option is incorrect.
• Cancer cells are a type of neoplasm (abnormal growth), so the third option (do not form neoplasms) is incorrect.
• Metastasis is the spread of cancer cells from the original tumor to other parts of the body, and cancer cells may exhibit metastasis.
• Cancer cells have distinct morphological and functional differences from normal body cells, so the fifth option is incorrect.

Answer:

The correct option is: may exhibit metastasis.
