Answer:

False

Explanation:

Cancer is not necessarily hereditary. All cancer is genetic, but less than 10% of all types of cancer are inherited, that is, transmitted from parents to children. Cancer is a disease that depends a lot on environmental factors and lifestyle habits, and is not really hereditary in the strict sense of the word. Heredity means that you definitely acquire a family trait, such as eye color or a genetic disorder. The cause of cancer is not that simple, as cancers do not originate from a single gene. The disease, in most cases, affects older people and most cancers occur when several genetic changes occur in the cells, but not necessarily due to heredity.

Diabetes, on the other hand, can be considered hereditary in the case of type 1 diabetes. However, there is a complex interaction between genes, lifestyle and environment that may or may not increase someone's chances of developing diabetes. It is important to know what is capable of influencing the development of the condition and to take preventive measures to prevent the disease from developing.

Which sport from ancient China is said to be the predecessor of modern soccer?
Margaret [11]
Cuju, the soccer-like game in China, was introduced during the time of Qin Dynasty from 255 BC to 206 BC. Its popularity grew during the reign of the Han Dynasty's Emperor from 206 BC to 220 AD.

Initially, Cuju was played to train soldiers during the Qin Dynasty. It became a part of the Emperor's birthday celebration during the Han Dyanasty.

Cuju was played by both men and women. Its ball was made out of leather stuffed with soft fillings like fur. No hands must be used in playing the game. The ball must be kicked inside a net or a small hole. Team work is not needed since the focus of the game is to observe an individual's skills.
