The most effective way to prevent DNA mutation from UV radiation is: (C.) Avoid UV radiation by wearing sunscreen.

Mutation is the change in the normal sequence of DNA. The agents that induce these mutations are called mutagens. The mutations can be harmful as they can hamper the normal functioning of the living body. Some mutations however do not cause any significant changes and they are therefore called silent mutations.

Sunscreen is a a cream or liquid applied to the skin that prevents the harmful radiations of the sun to enter the body. They protect from the sun's UV-A and UV-B radiations.

3. What sedimentary rock is made up of pieces
ELEN [110]

<u>Coquina</u> is the sedimentary rock is made up of pieces  of shells.

Two types of sedimentary rock: Clastic and chemical sedimentary rocks

Explanation:

Coquina is the sedimentary rock formed by fragments or pieces of shells of marine animals like mollusks, brachiopods, trilobites and certain invertebrates.

The shells of marine animals are fragmented due to abrasion and mechanical degradation and sorting by the wave action and chemicals present in the sea water and gets transported which then sediments to form rock structures called coquina. The shells mostly contain calcium carbonate.

Chalk is the sedimentary rock formed b the fossil shells fragmented from foraminifers. This is a more powdery type of limestone.

Depending upon the type of sedimentation, sedimentary rocks are of three types:

Clastic – Made from sedimentation of clastic (pieces from broken rocks) through the processes of mechanical weathering and lithification (cementing and compacting). sandstone, conglomerate

Chemical – Made from evaporation of water and precipitation of materials which were previously dissolved in a solution. Example: Rock salt, dolomite

Organic – Repeated accumulation and sedimentation of organic matter or remains from plant and animal sources like bones (calcium deposits). Example: coal.

What<br> is added to make RNA?
Anarel [89]
Three of the four nitrogenous bases that make up RNA — adenine (A), cytosine (C), and guanine (G) — are also found in DNA. In RNA, however, a base called uracil (U) replaces thymine (T) as the complementary nucleotide to adenine (Figure 3). ... (Remember, DNA is almost always in a double-stranded helical form.)

Brainstorm how you could use recombinant DNA technology to make normal E. coli bacterial cells glow green.
DiKsa [7]

Answer:

In order to make E. coli bacterial cells glow green, we need to insert a gene that can be translated into the <u>green fluorescent protein.</u> This gene is well-known as <u>gfp</u> and can be inserted either in the DNA or plasmid of the bacteria. The genome insertion procedure would follow the conventional method where the DNA will be first cut using restriction enzymes and then would be ligated. This approach has been extensively applied to test the fate of bacteria in the environmental systems.

A schematic diagram on insertion of gfp in the plasmid of bacteria is shown in the figure. The left side diagram shows that gfp is inserted and right side figure shows glowing bacteria in the presence of UV.
