Answer:

can cause cancer.  

Explanation:

The DNA damage is mostly repaired by the repair mechanisms present in cells. If DNA damage is not repaired, it can cause a random change in the genetic material of the organism. These changes in the DNA are permanent and are called mutations. Mutations may be adaptive or harmful. Mutations in a protooncogene leading to overproduction of protein to allow uncontrolled cell division can cause cancer. Similarly, a loss of function in tumor suppressor genes also causes cancer.

Why do hevier objects fall more slowly than lighter objects
Delicious77 [7]

Actually, heavier objects fall faster. The difference is infinitesimal, but there is a tiny difference because more mass causes objects to fall faster (e.g. objects fall faster on earth than on the moon). On earth, the different rate of fall between heavier and lighter objects is negligible (because objects are tiny compared to the earth's mass), so objects of different weights fall at virtually the same rate. But not at exactly the same rate. Objects of different weights must accelerate at different rates because accel.
