Answer:

Relation between mutagens and carcinogens. Mutagenicity and carcinogenicity are clearly correlated. One study showed that 157 of 175 known carcinogens (approximately 90 percent) are also mutagens. The somatic mutation theory of cancer holds that these agents cause cancer by inducing the mutation of somatic cells.
