The bear, even though it is a very heavy and bulky animal, it can run pretty fast, and can easily outrun a human, but this is while running straight or when making gradual turns. The situation changes if the human starts running in a zigzag pattern. The human is much lighter, quick acceleration, long thin legs, and is much more agile, which will all be its advantage because in this kind of a chase the agility and acceleration are crucial. The bear on the other hand, will find it very difficult because its weight will disable it to make quick turns, it has a slow acceleration, and is not agile. So a human with a solid amount of stamina with using this tactic has a pretty good chances of escaping a charging bear.

DNA, the genetic material of living organisms, is damaged by light in the
insens350 [35]

Answer:

The correct option is <em>B) ultraviolet region, especially below a wavelength of 320 nm.</em>

Explanation:

Ultraviolet light carries an enormous amount of energy in it. It is invisible to the human eye. When UV light with enormous energy and wavelength lesser than 320nm, hits the DNA, it causes changes in the structure of the DNA. Mostly, it affects the thymine nitrogenous base regions and forms pyrimidine dimers. The structure of the DNA changes on all the sites where dimers form and hence, they cannot be properly transcribed.
