Everyone is exposed regularly to ionizing radiation found in the soil, water, and air and from cosmic rays. In fact, 80% of the

ionizing radiation people are exposed to comes from naturally occurring sources. Ionizing radiation can cause double-strand breaks in the DNA. Often, the DNA breaks have missing nucleotides at the broken ends. What type of repair would likely be used, and what would be the result of repairing this type of damage

Answer:

Non-homologous end joining

Explanation:

The double-strand breaks are repaired using, non-homologous end joining (NHEJ), in the absence of a homologous sequence, .

Some nucleotide are removed from the ends, produced by the double-strand break and then the two strands are ligated, Ku proteins firstly binds to the ends and it recruits DNA-PKcs, which then recruits the Artemis (a nuclease) , it will remove single-stranded DNA if any in that region then DNA ligase IV ligates the 2 ends.

Since NHEJ results in deletion of few nucleotide,then this is an error-prone repair mechanism

convclusively, Non-homologous end joining would be used to join the DNA, but errors would still remain.

Describe relationship between observation and scientific theory
SOVA2 [1]
37. Observation and scientific theory are both related. Because it needs hypothesis and experiment to be able to have an actual data to show. For example: If you want to know how a monggo seeds grow on a wet cotton. Then you should be preparing the needed things and perform the experiment. You need to observe to be able to get the scientific theory of how this experiment works. That’s how observation and scientific theory is related. They will always be together in science.

state what will happen to the shadow if the opaque object is moved closer to the screen and away from flash light ​
mars1129 [50]

Answer:

Objects able to block all the light are called opaque and will form a shadow. ... The closer an object is to the light source, the larger the shadow it casts. This is because an object closer to the source will block a larger area of the light, increasing its shadow size.
