hello,
i really need your help to find the best topic for my biology essay. it is about "Cancer cells"
do you have any ideas and references? thanks before :)

Hello.The fact cancer is mutational, a body working against itself, as if it is its own entity is peculiar. Its ability to mutate due to precursors or environmental stimulus, starting with a catalyst or spark, in such a way as to make the body as a whole unable to control it or change it. It does appear the body works off a sequence of codes. Stimulate or in act a certain sequence you get a ratio of results. Now I have no idea how one would stimulate those sequences or what those results would be. I do not know how one would reach those conclusions without drastic experimentation, hence no one wants to be a guinnypig.

Maybe you can show the connection between cancer cells and the various ways used to stop them.

I often read that certain things are linked to cancer, but I assume these are always discovered through statistical correlation, and then a theory is developed to explain the link.

Better science starts with theory and then does research to see if hypotheses are supported, but rarely do I read mechanical biological explanations for cells mutate into various cancers.

I have heard viruses are involved or radiation or chemicals can stimulate genetic mutation.

I have also heard that various factors can prevent cancer, such as healthy diet, regular exercise, vitamin A, etc.

I think you just examine some factors that are believed to be carcinogenic or cancer-preventing and examine or theorize the mechanics of how these things affect cells which would cause them to become cancerous or resist doing so.

That's my vote, anyway.
