<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.

True or False. By using cuttings, exact genetic characteristics can be maintained.​
Brrunno [24]

Answer:

It is true to say that by using cuttings, exact genetic characteristics can be maintained, because the cuttings retain the same genetic information about the plant from which they were extracted.​

Explanation:

Cuttings are buds or branches extracted from a plant to obtain a plant of the same species, through a type of asexual reproduction.

Once separated from the "progenitor" plant, the cutting is provided with a suitable medium for growth, and will have the possibility of growing roots, developing and growing as an independent plant, with the same genetic characteristics of the original plant, as if it were a clone.

In this reproductive process, man intervenes.
