In the apple maggot fly, the frequency of certain alleles increases steadily as one goes from North to South. This is an example of: Sympatric speciation.

Sympatric speciation is observed when there are no physical barriers which prevent any members of a species from mating with another, and all members are in close contact to one another. A new species, possibly established on a distinct food source or trait seems to develop instinctively.

The example of apple maggot fly supports a model for sympatric speciation in progress. Hawthorn is the native host for the apple maggot fly in North America. However, in the mid-1800s, a new population developed on introduced, domesticated apple.

The cancer cells can be controlled with chemotherapy so the first one is definitely wrong. And I do not believe that they contain stem cells. The last one is right because the reason cells become cancerous is because their growth inhibitors are broken or switched off, so they do not know when to stop growing and it becomes a problem for the body.
