Answer:

While diet is thought to play a role in the development of colorectal cancer, the ultimate causes are largely unknown.

Explanation:

Colorectal cancer is a cancer related to the end of the digestive system in either the colon or the rectum. It is treatable if caught early enough by medical professionals.

Cancer can be caused by a number of factors, and those factors change depending on where the cancer is located. Since we are in the digestive tract, the obvious reason for cancer can be linked to diet. However, there is little evidence to support this, and the ultimate reasons remain unknown.

List 3 differences between aerobic and anaerobic exercise.
Nitella [24]
1. aerobic means "with oxygen" and anaerobic means "without oxygen"

2. aerobic can mean small exercises meaning you aren't using too much of your body's muscles and bones to workout. Anaerobic can mean big exercises meaning weight lifting. 

3. With aerobic exercise the oxygen is carried through your breath to the muscles giving them the energy they needed. This is basically an example of a warm-up before an exercise. Anaerobic however makes you out of breath quickly because without doing the warm-up and you just go into the workout you are making yourself weak and not have enough energy. 

Hope this helped :)
