    There are vitamin A receptors on cancer cells and retinoid chemotherapy drugs bind to them.

    Explanation:

    In the given question all the statements are true but the false statement is that the cancer cells possess the Vitamin A receptors.

    This statement is not correct as the cancer cells do not possess the vitamin A receptor in their membrane and since there are no receptors therefore the retinoid chemotherapy drugs do not bind to them.

    But the studies on the cancer cells has shown that there are vitamin D receptors in the cells.

    Thus, the selected options are correct.
