What is carcinogens and mutagens?
In genetics, a mutagen is a physical or chemical agent that changes the genetic material, mutagen can causes cancer. while a carcinogen is any substance, radionuclide or radiation that is an agent directly involved in causing cancer.
Can mutations cause changes in DNA sequences?
mutations
Cancer can occur when what mutate?
Cancer can occur when genes mutate. Genes are sections of DNA that carry instructions to make proteins. Proteins control how cells grow and multiply. When genes mutate, they can cause abnormal or missing proteins, which can disrupt the normal functioning of cells and lead to uncontrolled growth. Mutations can be very small, affecting only a few nucleotides, or very large, affecting whole chromosomes. Mutations can also be inherited from parents or acquired during a person’s lifetime due to environmental factors, such as chemicals, radiation, or viruses. Not all mutations cause cancer, and not all cancers are caused by mutations. Some cancers are caused by epigenetic changes, which affect how genes are turned on or off without changing the DNA sequence. Some people may also have a higher risk of developing cancer due to their genetic makeup, family history, or lifestyle factors
What agents do not cause mutations in DNA?
The height of mount Everest is unlikely to cause mutation in DNA. You may find this answer surprising but it is I assure you a true answer. Your problem is that you asked your question in the negative (What is UNLIKELY) which means that just about anything in the universe is a valid answer.
How can mutations affect an organism?
It depends on if it is in the germ line or in a somatic Cell. In the germ line a mutation can cause birth defects or lethal mutations. In somatic Cells it can cause cancer. The Genetic Mutation will have either of these effects: either beneficial or detrimental.
Does cancer result from genetic mutations-?
Mutating Cells can be a source of Cancer, but not necessarily. All mutating cells do not cause Cancer.

Does make up cause cancer?
Ive never heard that. Probably not, as long as you dont use the entire container all at once on your face.
Describe how gene mutations affect protein production.?
gene mutations can affect protein production through various mutations as nonsense mutations are any genetic mutation that leads to the RNA sequence becoming a stop codon. missense mutations are mutations that changes an amino acid from one to another. Slient mutations are mutations that dont affect the protein at all.
Is cancer an active or hidden virus?
Cancer is not a virus at all. Cancer is a class of diseases where cells proliferate (divide) uncontrollably. Cancer is usually caused by mutations in DNA either from carcinogens, radiation, chemicals, or infectious agents.
