The root word cyto means "cell".
Answer:
Carcinogenic
Explanation:
A carcinogenic substance is able to modify or damage the genome in a way which promotes the formation of cancerous cells. Cell cycle checkpoint proteins are very crucial for the progression of normal cell cycle. They check for any anomaly in their designated step and halt the process if it is detected. Repair mechanism is activated and cell cycle does not progress till the damage has been repaired.
Here, the pollutant alters the structure of these proteins such that they lose their function. They are not be able to stop cell cycle from progressing even if there is some damage in the genome. The cell divides and gives rise to more damaged cells. Eventually these cells lose their normal function and just keep dividing due to which their division rate becomes double of the normal rate. It can ultimately give rise to cancer which is why the chemical is carcinogenic.
Hello there!
Ripping up a peice of paper is considered physical change.
Physical change means its still the same, it just changed shape.
Chemical change cannot be changed back.
For ex) Burning paper.
Its a chemical change because it cant be undone
hope this helps!

Answer: Hope this helps!
It is useful to use light years when you have to measure a super long distance as a light is approximately 6 trillion miles. And astronomical units are known as measurements within our solar system.
D because it states that alternate version of genes could cause variations
