    Benign tumors are noncancerous growths that do not spread to other parts of the body, while malignant tumors are cancerous growths that can metastasize. Malignant cells exhibit features of anaplasia like loss of differentiation and irregular shapes. Chemical and biological carcinogens can initiate cancer development, and oncogenic viruses are responsible for some tumors. Certain genes like p53 and RB function as tumor suppressors by inhibiting cell growth. Modern diagnostic aids for cancer detection include tumor markers, biopsy techniques like FNAC, and screening methods such as Pap smears.
