All the above


Generally, cancer is caused by UV and X-rays radiations and colchicine like materials. Radiation can cause cancer in most parts of the body, in all animals, and at any age, although radiation-induced solid tumors usually take 10–15 years, and can take up to 40 years, to become clinically manifest.
