Answer:

Chemicals that cause cancer are direct acting carcinogens such as asbestos, nickel, cadmium, radon, vinyl chloride, benzidene, and benzene. Exposure can increase the risk of cancer by changing cellular metablolism or damaging DNA in cells, leading to the formation of tumors. Cells respond to chemicals in 3 ways, either the cell dies, it repairs itself, or it becomes cancerous.
