Process that releases energy by breaking down glucose and other food molecules in the presence of oxygen, A complex set of chemical reactions involving an energy transformation where potential chemical energy in the bonds of "food" molecules is released and partially captured in the bonds of adenosine triphosphate
Answer: Colon cancer
Explanation:
All cancers, but especially colon and rectal cancers, commonly referred to as colorectal cancer (CRC), have hereditary factors that potentially increase one’s risk.
Genetic testing is determine if there is an increased risk of colon cancer. Apolipoprotein E (apoE) plays a major role in the metabolism of bile acids, cholesterol and triglycerides, and has recently been proposed as being involved in the carcinogenic process. Given the potential role of bile acids in colorectal cancer etiology, it is reasonable that colorectal cancer risk might be modified by apoE genotype. The absence of an e3 apoE allele significantly increased the risk of colon cancer especially for individuals above 50years.
