Explanation / Answer

Ans 1 : b) far from normal cells

When the cancer is well differentiated it resembles the noraml tissue from it originated in its appearance. Now when it is poorly differentiated , its appearance does not resemble the normal cells. In such a case it becomes difficult to determine the parent tissue and the target treatment for it.
