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.

solong [7]

Answer:

Multicellular

Eukaryotic

Heterotrophs

Explanation:

Both cells of fungi and animals are eukaryotic meaning they have  nucleus and organelles. They are multicellular organisms (meaning they are composed of many cells). Their cells are also heterotrophic meaning they depend on organic molecules for energy as opposed to plants that can make their food from abiotic factors. Fungi, however, digest their molecules extracellularly while animals do it intracellularly.
