Which of the Following Result(s)directly from Metastasis

Question

Which of the following result(s)directly from metastasis?
A)Primary tumors
B)Secondary tumors
C)Tumor vascularization
D)Decreased DNA repair
E)Increased apoptosis

Accepted Answer

Metastasis refers to the spread of cancer cells from the primary tumor to other parts of the body. This often results in the formation of secondary tumors, which are also known as metastatic tumors. Therefore, the correct choice is B. Primary tumors (A) occur before metastasis, tumor vascularization (C) may be a factor in tumor growth but is not a direct result of metastasis, and decreased DNA repair (D) and increased apoptosis (E) may be consequences of cancer development but are not specifically associated with metastasis.
