Mutagen is an agent that causes DNA mutations. UVA radiation penetrates deep into the skin and acts as a mutagen. UV light is the most common source of radiation that affects DNA, but it is a weak radiation and it penetrates only the surface cells of your skin.

Sati [7]

Option (D) flagellated protist is correct.

The last common ancestor of all animals was probably a flagellated protist.

<h3>What is a Protist?</h3>
  • Any eukaryotic organism that is not an animal, plant, or fungus is referred to as a protist.
  • The absence of other eukaryotes means that protists do not constitute a natural group, or clade, even though it seems likely that they all descended from a common ancestor.
  • Protozoa is another name for protists that resemble animals. Some are parasites as well.
  • The four phyla that make up the Protozoa are flagellates, ciliates, spore-forming protists, and protists that resemble amoebas.
  • Nuclear membranes surround the DNA of protists.
  • Most protists are motile, or able to move, and many of them inhabit aquatic settings.
  • Protists can reproduce sexually and/or asexually, and their life cycles are intricate.
  • Protists consume, absorb, or produce food through photosynthesis.

Why does coomassie brilliant blue r interact differently with different proteins?
alexandr1967 [171]
Dimethyl sulfoxide was found to be effective for extraction of Coomassie Brilliant Blue R-250 (Coomassie R) from stained proteins on polyacrylamide gel slices. A good correlation was found between the ability of different proteins to bind Coomassie R and their capacity for interaction with Coomassie Brilliant Blue G-250 (Coomassie G) in solution. Scatchard analysis showed that the number of Coomassie R ligands bound to each protein molecule is approximately proportional to the number of positive charges on the protein, about 1.5-3 dye.
