Answer 1

Answer:

D) D, B, C, E, A, F

Explanation:

Homologous recombination (HR) is a DNA repair pathway that consists of the exchange between two identical (or very similar) DNA regions. The steps of HR are: 1-Strand exchange, which refers to the pairing between broken DNA regions; 2-Strand invasion in order to provide a DNA crossover (Holliday junction); 3- Branch migration, capable of extending the heteroduplex regions far away from DNA crossover, 4-Resolution, where Holliday junction is resolved by cleavage of the junctions; 5- In the last step, a DNA ligase enables the joining of DNA strands.
