“One key adaptation of a malignant cancer is to increase the rate of mutations. A fast-growing tumor isn’t just one type of cancer cell that is rapidly proliferating. It is a boiling cauldron of hyper-mutating cell lines that compete against each other. Another adaptive strategy for a cancer cell is to disperse so that it can compete against normal cells rather than against other cancer cells—metastasis.”
