Answer:

It penetrates the skin and can cause mutations.

Explanation:

UV light is the most common source of radiation that affects DNA, but it is a weak radiation and it penetrates only the surface cells of your skin. However, UVA radiation is considered as a mutagen because it penetrates deep into the skin and can cause mutations.

Answer:

I think your answer is wrong. The right answer is D. Nucleus & Ribosome.

Explanation:

A process that takes place in the cells of all living things: the production of proteins. This process is called protein synthesis, and it actually consists of two processes — transcription and translation. During translation, the genetic code in mRNA is read and used to make a protein. These two processes are summed up by the central dogma of molecular biology: DNA → RNA → Protein. In eukaryotic cells, transcription takes place in the nucleus. During transcription, DNA is used as a template to make a molecule of messenger RNA (mRNA). The molecule of mRNA then leaves the nucleus and goes to a ribosome in the cytoplasm, where translation occurs.

The nucleus contains the cell's DNA and directs the synthesis of ribosomes and proteins. Typically, the nucleus is the most prominent organelle in a cell. Eukaryotic cells have a true nucleus, which means the cell’s DNA is surrounded by a membrane. Therefore, the nucleus houses the cell’s DNA and directs the synthesis of proteins and ribosomes, the cellular organelles responsible for protein synthesis.
