Which recent discovery led to a new understanding of how genetic mutations increase the risk of cancer

The discovery of BRCA1 and BRCA2

genes led to a new understanding of how genetic mutations increase the risk of

cancer is. Mutations in the genes BRCA1 (breast

cancer gene 1)

and BRCA2 (breast cancer gene 2) increase a woman's risk of developing breast

or ovarian cancer. BRCA mutations account for about 5% of all breast

cancers and 4%–11% of all ovarian cancers.

The correct answer between all

the choices given is the second choice or letter B.

the two answers are a, the population of birds with large beaks will increase on the island, and c, the trait for large beaks will be passed on to future generations through natural selection. the reason for that is because if the birds that have beaks developed for eating small seeds lose all of their food, they will go hungry and eventually starve because they physically cannot eat the large seeds, therefore making the population of large beaked birds higher. also, if the trait of large beaks are dominant on the island over small beaks, then over time the large beaked birds will reproduce more and more, while the smaller beaked birds will reproduce less and less because they can't survive with the food provided. that leads to the trait of small beaks disappearing and the trait of large beaks taking over the island.
