Answer:

D. deamination of cytosine to uracil

Explanation:

Hydrolytic DNA damage is usually a consequence of metabolic reactions and the most common example of this type of damage is hydrolysis of cytosine into uracil with the release of ammonia. This damage can be fixed by the cell's DNA repair system:removal of uracil  by an enzyme uracil-DNA glycosylase and consequently generation of an abasic (AP) site.  AP endonucleases recognise AP site and break a phosphodiester bond so that lesion can be replaced with another cytosine.

Protein will give a calorie about 4kcal/gram. Then, the total calorie of protein from Susan meal would be: 70 grams * 4kcal/g= 280 <span>kilo calorie</span>.
To find the percentage you will need to divide the total calorie diet with the protein calorie. The calculation would be:

protein percentage= protein calorie/ total calorie 
protein percentage= 280kcal / 2,000kcal = 14%
