What is the difference between Communism, Fascism and Nazism?
These are the three main ideologies for which major wars have been fought in the last 100 years or so (World War II, Cold War). But how do they differ.
Well communism has socialist and leftist leanings. Communism is associated with the soviet regime (But the base ideas of this ideology were of Karl Marx, a German).
Nazism has socialist and rightist leanings. Nazism is associated with Hitler regime in Germany.
Fascism also has socialist and rightist leanings. Fascism is associated with Mussolini regime in Italy.
So what is the difference between Fascism and Nazism if both are socialist and rightist?
Wikipedia tells us that Nazism is generally considered a form of fascism. But there are some subtle differences. More on that at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nazism#Nazism_and_Fascism
Cancerous TumorWhat is cancer?
Cancer is a class of diseases or disorders characterized by uncontrolled division of cells and the ability of these cells to invade other tissues, either by direct growth into adjacent tissue through invasion or by implantation into distant sites through blood or lymph (the clear fluid that bathes body cells).
Tumor or tumour literally means "swelling". However, the term is now primarily used to denote abnormal growth of tissue. This growth can be either malignant or benign.Cancer spread from the primary tumor through the lymph nodes to other sites.
Origins of cancer
Cell division or cell proliferation is a physiological process that occurs in almost all tissues and under many circumstances. Normally the balance between proliferation and programmed cell death is tightly regulated to ensure the integrity of organs and tissues. Mutations in DNA that lead to cancer disrupt these orderly processes. The uncontrolled and often rapid proliferation of cells can lead to either a benign tumor or a malignant tumor (cancer). Benign tumors do not spread to other parts of the body or invade other tissues, and they are rarely a threat to life unless they extrinsically compress vital structures. Malignant tumors can invade other organs, spread to distant locations and become life-threatening.
Chemotherapy
Chemotherapy is a cancer treatment that damages cancerous cells, causing them to stop dividing.Chemotherapy also affects normally dividing cells in the body, such as those in the skin, digestive tract and blood. For this reason, a patient may become quite sick as a result of chemotherapy treatment.
This treatment commonly has adverse side effects that may include the temporary loss of the body's natural immunity to infections, hair loss, digestive upset, and a general feeling of illness. Chemotherapy may be taken by mouth or it may be put into the body by a needle inserted into a vein or muscle.
Chemotherapy may be given in many forms including: pill, injection, or by catheter. The drugs enter the bloodstream and travel through the body killing mostly cancer cells, but also some healthy cells.
