Answer: The correct answer is C.) They divide rapidly.

Cancerous cells are rapidly dividing cells, which can invade to nearby tissues and also travel to some other areas through blood circulation. Hair follicles and bone marrow cells are also rapidly dividing.

Thus, chemicals used in chemotherapy treatments to fight cancer can also harm cells in hair follicles and bone marrow.

Therefore, C) is the right answer.
