Detailed explanation-1: -A virus must enter a living cell and take over the cell’s machinery in order to reproduce and make more viruses. Some viruses do this by inserting their own DNA (or RNA) into that of the host cell. When the DNA or RNA affects the host cell’s genes, it can push the cell toward becoming cancer.
Detailed explanation-2: -Epstein-Barr virus, human papilloma virus, hepatitis B virus, and human herpes virus-8 are the four DNA viruses that are capable of causing the development of human cancers. Human T lymphotrophic virus type 1 and hepatitis C viruses are the two RNA viruses that contribute to human cancers.
Detailed explanation-3: -The genes ATM, PALB2, and CHEK2 may increase the risk for several types of cancer, including breast, ovarian, colon, prostate, and pancreatic.
