What term describes a condition that is "not cancerous"?

Near
Inflammation
Not cancerous
Between

The correct answer is: Not cancerous

The term that describes a condition that is "not cancerous" is commonly referred to as "benign." Although the option presented as "not cancerous" directly refers to this definition, the correct term used in medical terminology is "benign." The other choices do not align with the concept of being non-cancerous. "Near" and "between" relate more to position or proximity, while "inflammation" refers to a biological response to harmful stimuli, which can occur in both benign and malignant conditions. Therefore, stating "not cancerous" accurately conveys the essence of a benign condition.
