During elongation of RNA or synthesis of DNA, nucleotides are joined in chains by chemically joining the 5’ phosphate group of one nucleotide to the 3’ hydroxyl group of the next nucleotide. Cordycepin triphosphate is similar in structure to the adenosine triphosphate hence is incorporated in elongation chain during transcription and replication. <span>However, due to its lack of the 3’OH moiety (that is required for elongation), the replication or transcription is unduly terminated.</span>

In a healthy cell, the rate of DNA repair is equal to the rate of DNA mutation. When the rate of repair lags behind the rate of
kvv77 [185]

Answer:

The possible fate of the cell that it may turn cancerous.

Explanation:

The cells present in the body generally work in harmony. However, if a cell attains a mutation, it can make it proliferate in the case when it should not do, and make it thrive in the case when other cells are dying. Due to proliferation, the unusual cell produces more abnormal cells also known as cancerous cells. These cancerous cells become more favorable in comparison to the normal cells due to the phenomenon of natural selection. These cells eventually result in a lethal form of tumors.  

In the normal cells, the destructed gene or the damaged cells get repaired easily, in case if the damage is worse the cell dies. A protein known as p53 helps in repairing damaged cells or kills them if the damage is too severe. But in the case of cancer cells, the p53 protein does not work appropriately as they possess a mutated or changed form of p53 protein. Thus, in the case of cancerous cells, the rate of repair lags behind the rate of mutation, which makes the cancer cells thrive and increase in numbers resulting in further destruction.

Which is an extreme disturbance to any ecosystem ​
adelina 88 [10]
Extreme disturbances are complex events. The terminology used to identify them, such as 'hurricanes,' 'fires,' 'economic collapse,' 'war,' or 'drought,' is insufficient for advancing understanding about how they interact with, and affect, ecosystems, including SETS.
