10 points best answer.does anyone know how mitosis and cancer are interlinked?

Well, if you think about what cancer is- uncontrolled cell growth and what mitosis does- increase cell numbers, then the link is clear. Cancer is uncontrolled cell growth through mitosis. When the natural cell cycle is disrupted, cells skip past the G phases and go right to the reproductive phase. This creates a quickly growing cell m- cancer.
