Mutagens are agents that cause changes or mutations in the DNA of organisms, potentially leading to genetic alterations. They can be physical, such as radiation, or chemical, including certain substances like benzene or formaldehyde. Exposure to mutagens can increase the risk of cancer and other genetic disorders by disrupting normal cellular processes. Importantly, not all mutagens lead to harmful effects, as some mutations can be neutral or even beneficial in certain contexts.

What are three types of mutagens?
Mutagens may be of physical, chemical, or biologic origin. Examples of physical mutagens include Ultraviolet rays, radioactivity, and over high temperature. Examples of chemical mutagens include nicotine, pesticides, and methane. Examples of biologic mutagens include bacteria and viruses.

How does mutagens enter a human's body?
Mutagens can enter the human body through various routes such as inhalation, ingestion, and skin contact. Once inside the body, mutagens can disrupt DNA and lead to mutations that can potentially contribute to the development of cancer. It is important to minimize exposure to mutagens to reduce the risk of negative health effects.
