Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The presence of BRCA1, BRCA2, Her2, and p53 mutations is most likely to cause tumors because all four genes are known tumor suppressors and their mutations can lead to uncontrolled cell growth and division. Mutations in just BRCA1 and BRCA2 or just BRCA1 and p53 may increase the risk of cancer, but the addition of Her2 and p53 mutations further increases this risk. Mutations in BRCA1, BRCA2, and p53 may also increase the risk of cancer, but the addition of Her2 mutations makes choice C the most likely to cause tumors.
