Interestingly, the same is true for mammals. Mammalian cells have contingencies to maintain the growth/accuracy balance, but sometimes the accelerator is hit so hard that it blows through the checks and balances and becomes a tumour. The further the checks and balances are corrupted, the more likely that organism is likely to become a malignant cancer.
