Lesson Title: Today we are learning about
What increases the risk of getting cancer?
Remember to check for PROGRESS
Focus on Knowledge, Skills and Understanding
Success Criteria: You will show your learning by...
  1. There are also genetic risk factors for some cancers.
  2. Students should be able to describe cancer as the result of changes in cells that lead to uncontrolled growth and division.
  3. Benign tumours are growths of abnormal cells which are contained in one area, usually within a membrane.
  4. Benign tumours do not invade other parts of the body.
  5. Malignant tumour cells are cancers.
  6. Malignant tumours invade neighbouring tissues and spread to different parts of the body in the blood where they form secondary tumours.
  7. Scientists have identified lifestyle risk factors for various types of cancer.
Think about how you can match the needs of ALL students
Keywords:
  • Malignant: A tumour where cells can spread to other parts of the body creating new tumours. (1)
  • Benign: A tumour that does not spread to other parts of the body. (1)
  • Tumour: Abnormal growth of cells in the body producing a swelling or lump. (1)
  • Cancer: A malignant growth resulting from an uncontrolled division of cells. (1)

AFL/Key Questions:
  1. What are the other risk factors apart from lifestyle risk factors?
    There are also genetic risk factors for some cancers.
  2. In terms of cells what is cancer?
    Cancer is the result of changes in cells that lead to uncontrolled growth and division.
  3. What are benign tumours?
    Benign tumours are growths of abnormal cells which are contained in one area, usually within a membrane.
  4. Can benign tumours cause cancer to spread around the body?
    No, benign tumours do not invade other parts of the body.
  5. What are malignant tumours?
    Malignant tumour cells are cancers.
  6. How do malignant tumours form secondary tumours?
    Malignant tumours invade neighbouring tissues and spread to different parts of the body in the blood where they form secondary tumours.
  7. What are the main risk factors for various types of cancer?
    The lifestyle risk factors for cancer can include, smoking, drinking alcohol, obesity and excessive exposure to sunlight.
