In the given question, there is addition/insertion of T (thymine) at the second place in the original DNA sequence-

Answer:

<u><em>They take nutrients needed by healthy cells, and as they grow they interfere with the function of normal cells and organs.</em></u>

Explanation:

Many mutations can lead to the formation of cancer. Cancer can be described as an abnormal type of cell division of the cells of the body. As cancer cells are the cells of the body dividing abnormally, the immune cells fail to fight them. These cells keep on dividing and also disturb the functioning of the neighbouring cells and tissues. They even take up most of the nutrients required by normal body cells hence, being very toxic for the normal cells.
