Abnormalities of the genetic materials are the only known cause of cancer. Errors in DNA replication and heritability of the genetic diseases are the cause of cancer during birth stage. Excessive ultraviolet radiation, any harmful infectious agents, tobacco smokes or chemicals are responsible for the abnormalities of genetic materials. Genes which promote cancer are called oncogenes. They are activated in cancer Cells. Tumor suppressive genes are not activated in the cancer Cells. For that reason programmed cell death and hyper active division and growth of Cells cannot be prevented. Inaccurate DNA replication, irregular Cell cycle, damaging the immune system are the major symptoms of cancer.

Genetic. If your mom had cancer you have a great risk of getting it too. You have, i dunno, genetic material.
What can radiation cause?
Radiation can cause sunburn, cancer, genetic mutation.
Does cancer result from genetic mutations-?
Mutating Cells can be a source of Cancer, but not necessarily. All mutating cells do not cause Cancer.
Can some cosmetics cause skin cancer?

Can smoking serenity cause cancer?
The byproducts of burning vegetable materials almost always contain some cancer-causing agents.
What is the fastest type of cancer?
Sometimes cancer is genetic, but it increases a person's odds when they are exposed to cancer causing agents. Cigarettes contain many chemicals that are known to cause cancer.
How do carcinogens cause lung cancer?
Carcinogens produce mutations within DNA, inside cells. Usually this results in the death of the cell, but sometimes, if multiple mutations occur, the cell will start to reproduce uncontrollably, which results in cancer.
