Answer one
One possible answer is skin cancer. A mutation that causes abnormal cell division can lead to uncontrolled growth and division of skin cells, resulting in the development of skin cancer.
One main answer
One main answer is cystic fibrosis. A mutation in the CFTR gene, which is responsible for regulating the movement of salt and water in and out of cells, can result in abnormal cell division and functioning in various organs, particularly the lungs and pancreas. This leads to the build-up of thick, sticky mucus that can clog airways and ducts, causing respiratory and digestive problems characteristic of cystic fibrosis.
