DNA replication especially those occurring at regions that are hard to replicate, called fragile sites, can cause breaks in DNA. This can lead to cancer, primarily by making it more likely that fragments of chromosomes rearrange themselves, activating genes that lead to uncontrollable cell division.

Pani-rosa [81]
Answer is D: the current make up of the crust

Changes in the temperature of the Earth's core will do the following:
1. Cause the outer core to solidify 
-this means that the liquid outer core which is responsible for generating the magnetic field protecting us humans from solar radiation will be gone

2. Cause the mantle to solidify
-this means that if the mantle solidifies, the plate tectonics will stop moving around, and if this happens, the earthquakes and volcanoes will not be produced anymore and also mountain ranges will not be renewed, and the earth will be flattened by erosion.

Not a specific genetic sequence, some doctors and scientists believe it could be hereditary and others do not believe it is genetic but instead develops due to psychological and environmental factors. Look up the rat park study.
