I believe so yes. There is nothing that will carry cells around. Pardon me if I say anything inaccurate about the spread of cancer. My degree is in plants, not animals and certainly not humans so everything I know about that is in relation to mechanisms that plants have. All the animal knowledge I have is sparse and primarily ecological.
