Cancer is caused by uncontrolled cell division. Genes control the timing of cell division. If a virus infects a cell and inserts DNA in the middle of a gene controlling cell division, the altered cell would be MORE LIKELY to reproduce_____ and the new DNA would_____.

Respuesta :

The question is incop,ete as it does not have the options which are:

-normally; not be copied into the new cells

-uncontrollably; cause cell division to cease

-normally; make the new cells viral and not human

-uncontrollably; be copied to the new cells

Answer:

uncontrollably; be copied to the new cells

Explanation:

In the given question, it is mentioned that is a virus inserts its sequence in the middle of the gene which controls the cell division, therefore, the DNA sequence of the gene will be altered and the cell behaves abnormally. The cell will be divided in an uncontrollable manner.

The inserted DNA will be copied and replicated and will be passed on to the cells produced by the uncontrollable division.

Thus, the selected option is the correct answer.
