Biology
1 answer:
Aleksandr-060686 [28]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:True

Explanation:Basically thymine diamers are mismatched pairs (thymine binds with another thymine instead of binding with adenine) and may lead to unwanted results so the mismatching can be repaired by using two methods which are as follows :

1-the PRE enzyme activated by blue light breaks the thymine diamer and some of the surrounding bonds the strand is cut and DNA polymerase then restores the normal base pairing

2-UVR system breaks dimer creating a gap when a gap is created and the molecules appear unpaired it is filled by proof readers hence restoring normal base pairing.
