For the trait that is coded by a recessive allele to be expressed, the must be homology, which means that an offspring has to inherit that recessive allele from both its parents.

A dominant allele will dominate over the recessive allele, so for the trait coded by a dominant allele to be expressed, the offspring only needs to inherit the allele from one of its parents.

For example: "R" is brown eyes, "r" is blue eyes.
Now you get one R from each of your parents. 
RR (homozygote) = brown eyes
Rr (heterozygote) = brown eyes
rr (homozygote) = blue eyes

Mutagens such as pollutants and uv light can cause mutations in dna
Darina [25.2K]

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.
