Solution
Mitosis is controlled normally by group of proteins called Cyclins. They regulate cell cycle by activating Cyclin- dependent kinase (CdK) enzymes. Different types of cyclins play role at different stages of cell cycle.
During cancer, cells undergo uncontrolled cell division. They do not respond to Cyclins.
