Accepted Answer

Neoplasm is a medical term for an abnormal growth of tissue, commonly referred to as a tumor. It is not synonymous with carcinogen (a substance that can cause cancer) or sarcoma (a type of cancer that originates from connective tissue). Encapsulation refers to the process of surrounding and isolating an area, and is not directly related to the definition of neoplasm.
