By altering the function of regulatory genes virus can risk cancer.

Certain infectious agents, such as viruses, bacteria, and parasites, can increase the risk of cancer . In order to reproduce and make more viruses, a virus must enter a living cell and take over the cell's machinery. Some viruses accomplish this by embedding their own DNA (or RNA) into the host cell's. So when DNA or RNA impacts the genes of the host cell, it can cause the cell to become cancerous.

Most viruses only affect specific cells in the body, such as cold virus viruses that affect the nose and throat lining. That is why certain viruses are just associated with specific types of cancer.

Yes, groups are designed to work together towards a common goal or solution. Therefore they need to approach a conflict in a collaborative way. Competitive methods are used when individuals are competing with one another for personal benefits. Groups should only partake in competitive methods when they are approaching conflict resolution against other groups.
