<span>Cells control cell division in order to maintain normal cell function. If something happens to the control of the cell division, the healthy cells will divide uncontrollably. These new cells are cancer cells. </span>
The mutations in three genes are responsible for development of cancers:
1. Mutation in proto-oncogenes. Proto-oncogenes normally signal cells to grow and differentiate. Proto-oncogenes can become oncogenes due to mutations which result in the uncontrollable division of the cells.
2. Mutation in tumor suppressor genes. In normal cells, tumor suppressor genes suppress genes essential for cell cycle and that way they prevent uncontrollable cell division. However, after a mutation in these genes, suppression is lost and the cell may progress to cancer.
3. Mutation in stability genes. In normal cells, they have no role either in cell death or growth, but they control mutation rate. Mutation in stability genes results in situation where all genes, including proto-oncogenes and tumor suppression genes, are more frequently mutated.

Are bats the only mammal that can fly? BQ: are there flying reptiles
GREYUIT [131]
Yes, they ate the only mammals which could fly because flying squirrels, possums or etc. could only glide for a short distance and time, unlike bats. There are no reptiles who could fly, but there are reptiles who could glide which I think is completely different. But they said that Pterosaur existed which they believed it is a flying reptile dinosaur. Just look it up. :)

Ivenika [448]
The deer population would drastically be reduced with the slower rate of reproduction and predators that would kill more deer than can reproduce. The environment would likely also have a reduced population of predators for deer, since the food source is reduced.
