Diverse genetic and epigenetic changes occur in cells in response to unfavorable environments. Most of these changes do not directly cause the malignant transformation. An occasional, rare change can lead to cancer, although it may be expressed only in the environmental context that gave rise to it.

## Abstract Bullfrog tadpoles subjected to the daily disturbance of water replacement demonstrated differences in the rates of growth and metamorphosis and in fatbody weights which depended on the time of day when water replacement occurred. Early daily disturbances stimulated larval growth whereas
