Dehydration would happen if not my mistaken
Answer:
The correct answer is option E. "direct repair using photolyase has removed many of the pyrimidine dimers from the DNA in an error-free manner, so there are fewer lesions for SOS repair to process".
Explanation:
Photolyase is a type of enzyme that catalyses DNA repair from damage caused by exposure to ultraviolet light. Photolyase requires activation by exposure visible light, particularly from the violet end of the visible spectrum. If the Petri plates of the bacteria exposed to UV are located in an incubator that is closely at a large sunny windows, it is very likely that the bacteria is performing direct DNA repair using its photolyase enzymes.
Natural selection is when certain environmental qualities cause a species to evolve in order to survive in the environment. Natural selection is a specific part of that, when some of the variations of the species die off because they can't survive, then the ones who survive live to create more living babies with the qualities that allow them to survive in the environment.
