Let us have an example , imagine that the cell is a car . For the car to work properly there are factors that need to be consider like the gas pedal and a brake pedal . If the gas pedal works normally it helps the cell to divide . But when the gas pedal gets stuck , it can cause uncontrolled cell division leads to cancer formation .How about if the brake pedal gets stuck , and the car cannot slow down , accident happens and causes cell death. QUESTION Gas pedal that works normally and helps the cell to divide can be compare to what kind of gene ? Is it oncogene , proto - oncogene or tumor suppressor gene ? Explain your answer. Gas pedal that gets stuck and causes uncontrolled cell division leads to cancer is what kind of gene? Is it I oncogene, proto-oncogene or tumor suppressor gene? Explain your answer. Brake pedal that gets stuck causes car accident and even death can be compare to what kind of gene ?Is it oncogene, proto- oncogene or tumor suppressor gene? Explain your answer.
