Dna damage can occur as a result of exposure to chemicals or ultraviolet radiation. This is what happens during nucleotide excision repair of damaged dna. A multienzyme complex crosses the DNA in search of distortions in the double helix, once located, the phosphate skeleton of the affected chain is cut on both sides of the altered region, a helicase eliminates the oligonucleotide resulting from digestion, the "Gap" "is filled with a DNA polymerase and a ligase.
The answer would be Activational <span />
The natural rate of extinction as assumed by science is about 5 species per year. Currently scientists estimate we are losing species at 1000-10000 times that rate, with multiple species disappearing every day. A note on this idea is that the average extinction rate gives an unrealistic depiction of nature when we consider the catastrophic extinction events that ended the dinosaurs and shaped the ice age.
Answer:
the growth rate of each of the plants/ the relative humidity inside each terrarium
