Answer:

High-dose chemicals can damage DNA causing genotoxicity, which is defined as damage to DNA or genes. And this can be aggravated since many chemicals have had little toxicological evaluation.

Explanation:

The cancers are caused by mutations in the DNA throughout the life of a person, in such a way that obeying the causative factors, in this case the chemicals, they leave a mutational pattern in the genome of each tumor. There is an interesting biomarker called TGx-DDI, which is based on some genes that are expressed in a cell subjected to the stress produced by the chemical compound. These genes reflect the way in which different pathways can provide information on how cells respond to the chemical.

The products of the light reactions of photosynthesis are ______.
Pachacha [2.7K]

The correct answer is - B) ATP and NADPH.

The products of the light reactions of the process of photosynthesis are the ATP and NADPH. The small amount of ATP produced in this process and the energy carrier NADHP are crucial for the functioning of the organisms that use the process of photosynthesis, and the reason for that is that these two are used by the organisms to create glucose, or rather sugars, in the process called the Calvin Cycle. The glucose is what these organisms use as their food, a food they they manage to make themselves, thus making them producers. If the light is missing, then the process of photosynthesis can not be performed because the formation of ATP's will be stopped, as well as the formation of NADHP, so the organisms will not be able to produce their own food.
