The correct answer is C. skin cancer.

Abnormal cell division is often associated with cancer, including skin cancer, as it involves the uncontrolled proliferation of cells. Sickle cell anemia and cystic fibrosis are genetic disorders related to specific mutations that affect hemoglobin and protein function, respectively, while clogged arteries are usually related to lifestyle factors and not directly caused by mutations affecting cell division.
