Answer:

The correct answer is- Cancer cells attach to organs.

This malignant tumor cell or cancerous cell has the ability to attach the new tissue or organs and grow there. This property allow them to spread the cancer in the body. So these cells can produce secondary tumors by attaching to new organs.
