Ace Foley · Answer 1

False

Explanation:

Well-differentiated cancer cells tend to look more like normal cells in tissues where they are growing, because of this nature, they tend to grow less aggressive. In other words, they grow and spread slowly; they often referred to as low grade.

In contrast poorly-differentiated or undifferentiated cancer cells don't like normal cells in tissues where they are growing, because of this nature, they tend to grow more aggressively. In other words, they grow and spread rapidly and are often referred to as high grade.
