Cell division is related to the spread of cancer because cancer is uncontrolled cell division. So they are closely related.

Short Answer is: carcinoma is cell-division when the normal program of cell-division has 'been compromised', i. e. altered.

It is related because when the cell divides, sometimes it can cluster up... like a crowded room. then it starts to sort of push away the good cells so there is basically more room to breathe. eventually, this cluster of cells becomes one big ball and starts to spread to other parts of the body and develop more bad clustered cells again only in a different part of the body. This is how cancer forms and spreads to other organs in your body.

Cancer is related to cell divisions because it results from uncontrolled and abnormal cell division. When cells divide uncontrollably, they can form a mass of tissue known as a tumor. Cancer can develop when these abnormal cells continue to divide and spread to other parts of the body.

Cancer is when the cell divides uncontrollably. The cancerous cell divides without limit - usually, cells will stop dividing when they touch one another. The cancerous offspring also divide uncontrollably, making more and more mistakes in the DNA replication as they do so. Eventually, you'll have a tumor that impedes the functioning of other cells.

Cancer is related to cell division because cell division is how cancer spreads. Cancer originates with a mutated cell. When it begins to divide and overtake the good cells, the cancerous cell becomes a very big problem.

Cancer is caused by the lack of cell division controls. There are three controls in cells to determine when and if a cell should divide. When cancer occurs in a certain area, the cells' controls for division are inhibited. Then cells divide uncontrollably. This can cause large clumps of cells in areas where there is not enough room. For obvious reasons this can be extremely dangerous.

it is uncontrolled cell division which leads to cancer.

Cancer cells start out as normal cells but undergo genetic mutations. They lose the ability to control how fast they divide and cause disease and tumors.
