Base excision repair (BER) differs from nucleotide excision repair (NER) in which of the following ways?
postnew [5]

The correct answer is:  5) NER recognizes helix distortions, while BER recognizes specific base damage.

DNA damage that occurs as a result of radiation, oxidizing reagents, chemicals and other mutagens can be repaired. Excision repair repairs single strand DNA damage and it includes:

• Nucleotide excision repair (NER)-it detects and repairs types of damage that distort the DNA double helix such as those of UV radiation (thymine dimers); not only the damaged nucleotide(s) are removed but also a surrounding patch of DNA

• Base excision repair (BER)-it detects and removes certain types of damaged bases (small, non-helix-distorting bases); enzyme glycosylase is responsible for this type of repair

what theory states that not only climate but several other factors determine the characteristics of the climax community
shusha [124]
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

Climax-Pattern Theory

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
  • The Climax Pattern Theory emphasizes that a natural community is adapted to the whole pattern of environmental factors in which it exists.  
  • In addition to climatic factors, e.g. wind, there are a whole range of edaphic factors, fire, and biotic factors, including grazing, disease and mutualistic and competitive interactions.
  • The Climax Pattern Theory allows a continuity of climax types, varying gradually along environmental gradients and not neatly packaged into discrete climax types.
