I've heard that there are different types of cancer. Can you tell me about them?

Sure! There are many different types of cancer, and each type is caused by a mutation in a gene that affects the cell’s ability to grow and divide normally. The most common types of cancer are breast cancer, lung cancer, prostate cancer, colon cancer, pancreatic cancer, skin cancer, and lymphoma. Each type of cancer has its own characteristics, such as how it spreads, how it responds to treatment, and what symptoms it causes.
