Answer:

Option C

Explanation:

Base excision repair involves, the detection, removal and replacement of incorrect base in a nucleotide on one strand while using the other undamaged strand as template for the correction. It involves the DNA glycosylases that aids in detection. Repair can be done in two pathways: long patch panther

Short patch panther

How is a fish different from a jellyfish?
Korvikt [17]

Jellyfish are forever but fish ain't.

Plus, jellyfish have those tentacle like things attached to thier body and you might confuse em for octopus for that very reason..

but you should really evade confusing em as an octopus cuz octopus might take it as an insult and the next thing you know will be a Kraken taking your house down.. which is pretty tragic :'(
