Answer:

Alpha feto protein AFP

Step-by-step explanation:

Plasma protein bio marker alpha feto protein is detected by the liver test to determine the presence of liver cancer in a patient.

High levels of alpha feto proteins is also a sign of cancer of ovaries and testicles and also liver non cancerous diseases that is cirrhosis and hepatitis.

The increased levels of two liver enzyme AST and ALT is also indicator of hepatic cancer.
