• B) The cells receive too many signals via this pathway and divide out of control.
• C) The cells receive signals that trigger mutation and so they divide out of control.
• D) The cells bypass the normal regulatory pathway and stop dividing.
• E) The cells attack the regulatory pathway, halting normal cell division.
