Cancer. The nuclei of the cells are very enlarged because they divide uncontrollably. The cancer cells take more nutrients than healthy somatic cells, but they don't perform any body functions.

There are several theories of what can initially cause the uncontrolled cell division.

It might be caused by a

- faulty cell cycle control mechanism, which might be due to a mutation to, or some kind of impairment to the tumor suppressor gene p53.

- impairment to the apoptosis (normal cell death) mechanism.

- mutation to a progenitor stem cell itself, which keeps on producing cells with the same mutations over and over again.

- oncogens, genetic/chromosomal mutations.

Those are just a very few examples of a range of possibilities.
