      Uncontrolled cell division, or “anonymous multiplication,” leading to cancer occurs when cells ignore the signals that regulate their growth and division, causing them to multiply uncontrollably and potentially forming tumors. This process is driven by genetic mutations that disrupt the normal cell cycle and its regulatory mechanisms.
