dad's nose, his mother's eyes, and some cancer genes? Cancer genes are being passed down from

parents to children and spreading rapidly. Before a father died from cancer, he passed the genes

down to five children of his own. Later on, two daughters developed breast cancer and his son

had a brain tumor, but before knowing, they experienced at least one birth of their own. These

genes are killers and can appear in many different forms: lung, liver, skin, breast, brain, bladder,

stomach. Cancer is just a good cell gone bad because of one gene mutation.

One little mistake in an amino acid can mess up the whole cell. This altered amino acid

can cause deformed proteins, hence, making the nucleus swollen and the reproduction process

uncontrolable. It is like an assembly line made up of machines, but when it is time to quit for the

day, there is no shut-down lever to pull. In a regular cell, each time the cell divides, it loses some

of a chemical, so after many divisions, the cell uses up all of the the chemical and dies (Begley

43). The cancer produces an enzyme that protects this chemical a
