e!ect on your body. Some of these day to day things can lead to one of the most common diseases such as cancer. Many cancers include breast, colon, brain, prostate, and many more. 90% of all cancers are developed through the interaction through the environment. Cancer is the division of cells, causing damage to the surrounding tissues. Cancer can be caused in many ways including hereditary and environmentally. But nowadays we have found many treatment to solve or cope with this disease." " Almost 10% of cancer are inherited through your family. Some people are born with gene mutations that are inherited from their mothers or fathers."Cancer in a close relative, like a parent or sibling (brother or sister), is more cause for concern than cancer in a more distant relative. Even if the cancer was from a gene mutation, the chance of it passing on to you gets lower with more distant relatives"(Unknown 1, 2014)." The chances of you getting cancer through your family is pretty unlikely." " Most of all cancers are developed through your interactions with the environment. In the graph shown there are many factors that can lead to cancer(Figure 1.) On the left is are the objects and on the right are the estimated percentages. For example 29% of people get cancer through the interaction with tobacco. 29% percent may not seem like a lot but if you add all those percents up it is 92%. This is only a few interactions that can factor into cancer." On the left are the objects and on the right are the estimated percentages of cause of cancer." " " Lastly, nowadays we have found many advancements. To further our research for both types of cancers. People can now pay lots of money to check someones DNA to see if they have cancer. Doctors and Scientist can x you genes mutations if you are inheriting cancer through your

family."A big step toward this goal was completed in 2003, when government and private researchers mapped the entire sequence of DNA, called the human genome. This undertaking, called The Human Genome Project, took more than 10 years." (Unknown 2.)Researchers and Scientist are now proposing to map the genes of cancer cells to try to learn how those genes changed to produce the cancer. " " Cancer is caused either with interactions with the environment or hereditary. Some families carry cancer dominantly or recessively through their genes. Other use too much of an object in the environment. Most of cancers are developed through too many interactions with environment. Cancer is something we can not control. Like many things all we can do is try to prevent it from happening. Scientist are trying to nd cure or preventages for this disease." " " "
