What causes a person to have cancer?

Answer 1

In every cell, the following genes are available.

* The first gene is the cancer gene. If this gene, which is usually dormant, gets activated by being exposed to some radioactive material or by other means, it will cause the cell to multiply over and over again skipping the interphase. Because we have such a gene, we also have a backup. * A second gene is the self-destruct gene. When the entire cell is wrong (which can go from defective organelles to the cell itself) the cell tells all the lysosomes to burst and release their digestive enzymes all over the cell, causing the cell to be digested inside out. What happens with evident cancer is the defect with both genes. the cancer gene is turned on and the self-destruct gene is turned off, allowing that out-of-control cell to freely divide itself.

Answer 2

Most cells in the body have a capacity to divide. When cells get damaged, neighboring cells divide and replace the lost cells. This process is controlled genetically, physically and physiologically and is very carefully regulated. When the regulation of cell division goes out of control, it leads to uncontrollable proliferation cells which leads to the formation of a tumor. If a tumor is able to spread to other parts of the body, then it is dangerous and it is cancer.

Answer 3

Cancer is caused by genetic mutations that lead to uncontrolled cell growth. These mutations can be acquired through factors like smoking, ultraviolet radiation, and certain viruses, or inherited from family members. Other factors such as age, diet, and environmental exposures can also contribute to the development of cancer.

Answer 4

carcinogenic poisons (a complicated way of saying a cigarette).

Ultra-violet radiation.

High fat diet.

Genetic tendencies.

Answer 5

well any carcinagen really like being exposed to the suns ultra violet rays or smoking.
