<span>Proto-oncogenes are genes that normally help cells grow. When a proto-oncogenemutates (changes) or there are too many copies of it, it becomes a "bad" gene thatcan become permanently turned on or activated when it is not supposed to be. When this happens, the cell grows out of control, which can lead to cancer.....Is this what you need ?</span>

Answer:

Water is bolar

Explanation:

One side of the water molecule is slightly positive and the other is slightly negative. Water is made up of two hydrogen and one oxygen atoms. The bond in this arrangement is called a covalent bond. In addition to this, water is also called the universal solvent and is capable of sharing charges with a large amount of ionic compounds when mixed allowing them to be dissolved. In essence the strong bond is reduced. This weakens the ionic and hydrogen bonds in the presence of water. Next, in a vacuum, there are no other electrons to share charges with and the hydrogen and ionic bonds are said to be strong to an immeasurable amount, in some reports, infinity.
