Original Note:
This is factual wrong: Faulty genes (genetics) are the only reason for cancer. However, most cancer are caused by gene mutations which happen during life. In contrast, 5-10% of cancer are caused by inherited genes. https://www.cancerresearchuk.org/about-cancer/causes-of-cancer/inherited-cancer-genes-and-increased-cancer-risk/family-history-and-inherited-cancer-genes
