Question

question 13
what causes cancer in cells?
o uv damage to transport proteins
o damage to genes controlling the cell cycle
o chemical damage to cell membranes
o skipping the s phase in the cell cycle

Explanation:

Cancer is caused by uncontrolled cell growth. Genes control the cell cycle. When these genes are damaged, the cell cycle can go out of control, leading to cancer. UV damage to transport proteins, chemical damage to cell membranes, and skipping the S phase in the cell cycle do not directly cause cancer in the way that damaged cell - cycle - controlling genes do.

Answer:

Damage to genes controlling the cell cycle.
