Answer: Air pollution.


Air pollution occurs when harmful substances are introduced into the atmosphere. These substances majorly exist in two forms i.e solid ( particulate matter in air) and gaseous form.


CFCs (Chlorofluorocarbons) are compound consisting of Chlorine, fluorine, and carbon atoms. They are released in the atmosphere through aerosol sprays, air conditioners, refrigerators etc. Due to longer lifespan in the stratosphere, they can cause damage to the ozone layer thereby reducing earth's protection from harmful UV radiation. Also, they have warming effects which may cause global warming.



Smog is primarily named for the mixture of smoke and fog in the air. It is a blackish fog formed in the atmosphere mainly due to the reaction of various gases with dust and water vapors. it causes breathing difficulty and other harmful consequences.

olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer:

The correct answer is "both Cdc6 and Cdt1"

Explanation:

The replisome is a complex molecular system that allows for the replication of DNA in yeast. There are multiple genes that participate in the replisome function, however if a researcher finds out that a yeast strain fails to properly form replisomes it is very likely that the genes that might be mutated are both Cdc6 and Cdt1. Cdc6 and ORC are the genes that send the signal to the yeast to start the replisome formation, and Cdt1 is a DNA replication factor that if it is mutated it could cause that yeast is not able to form the replisome.
