Answer:

A trait that gives an organism a reproductive advantage in the current environment

Explanation:

  • Adaptations are mutations that helps an organism, such as animals or plants to survive in its environment due to a reproductive advantage.
  • Adaptations may be structural or behavioral adaptations. Structural adaptations are features or the physical part of an organism that boosts its survival.  Behavioral adaptations on the other hand, are responses made by an organism to help it survive or reproduce.

Which of the following statements about excision repair is correct?
maxonik [38]

Answer:

a. True, b. False, c.True, d. True

Explanation:

a. Base excision repair is started by a DNA glycosylase  that recognizes the changes and removes the altered base by cleavage of the glycosidic bond binding the base and the deoxyribose sugar together.

b. Nucleotide excision repair works by a cut-and patch mechanism that removes their heavy lesions, including pyrimidine dimers and nucleotides . Endonucleases are responsible for the lesion of the damaged strand.

c. Nucleotide excision repair  is initiated by the proteins namely UvrA, UvrC, and UvrB in Escherichia coli.

-UvrD (helicase II) later removes the damaged strand

-DNA polymerase I (PolI) fills in the resulting gap.

d. DNA glycolases removes the damaged nitrogenous base.

-It leaves the sugar-phosphate backbone intact and thus creating an  apurinic/apyrimidinic site, which is commonly referred to as an AP site.

e. Xeroderma pigmentosum complementation group A(XPA)

-This is an essential protein in the nucleotide excision repair pathway.

- It helps to make a pre-incision complex along with other proteins.
