The lack of appropriate apoptosis can also logically result in a tumor.

Basically, tumor are caused by abnormal growth of cells which result to an abnormal structure of the tumor.

The process of apoptotic allows the death of cells when they are not useful or healthy for the body.

However, the lack of appropriate apoptotic can also result to tumor because the process allows cancer cells to survive longer and gives more time for the accumulation of mutations.
