C
Cancers are essentially caused by mutations. Substances that cause cancerous mutations are known as carcinogens.

The correct answer is(B) a disruption in the cell cycle has taken place

Most of the diseases like cancer are caused due to disruption in cell cycle. Cell cycle is the most important mechanisms in the body for the regulation of proper growth and development of cells. This is important in the sense that it has various checkpoints that ensures the replication of healthy cells only. If there is any disruption in the cell cycle then the uncontrolled growth of cells takes place, called as cancer and some other diseases as well.
