Proteins/peptides exclusively expressed by tumor cells are termed as                  a. tumor associated antigens B. tumor specific antigens   Chemotherapy or radiation therapy targets cancer cells more than normal cells because cancer cells express different or mutated proteins on their cell surface Tumors of cancer cells have more blood vessels than normal tissues The therapies enhance antitumor immune response Cancer cells proliferate much faster than normal cells
