Mutations can cause cells to divide repeatedly and can eventually cause Cancer.

  • The mutation is sudden and directionless changes in the genetic material that cause genetic variations.
  • Due to mutations, the proto-oncogenes present in our genomes get activated.
  • The activation of C-oncogenes causes the unlimited growth of cells in a particular area as these cells have lost the property of contact inhibition and apoptosis.
  • Mutations cause by mutagens such as radiations like UV-rays and X-rays, metal ions like mercury, and some harmful chemicals.
  • Hence, the correct answer is an option (B).
