INSTRUCTIONS

In this discussion, explain two ways cancer can develop by causing the production of abnormal cells. Environmental factors, diet, heredity, radiation and excess sun exposure can all cause cancer. Explain 2 different ways cancer can develop in a person's body ( you can use the list provided or include risk factors of your own choice). An example has been provided for you.

Radiation: Although electronic devices are useful and can make life easier, excessive exposure to radiation can make a person suspectable to cancer. For example, a person should never stand in front of a microwave while warming food because microwaves can emit low levels of radiation. Instead of standing directly in front of the microwave, stand away from the device to decrease exposure.
