A common type of DNA damage from UV light results in:

Biology
1 answer:
Yakvenalex [24]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

C

Explanation:

The damage to DNA usually occurs where there  are two consecutive thymine nucleotides on  a DNA strand. The energy from the UV light causes the two dimers to form a cyclobutane pyrimidine structure.  Proofreading and repair mechanism of DNA find it difficult to repair this kind of damage on DNA. During replication, therefore, DNA polymerase is unable to replicate this region hence leading to a mutation on the replicated strand at this local point.

svlad2 [7]

Answer:

There is none.

Explanation:

DNA polimerase needs a preexisting 3'−OH to start building a DNA strain, and that´s why in DNA replication a primer made of RNA is needed to start the process.

RNA polimerase does not need a 3'−OH to start building a RNA strain. It attaches and moves along the DNA adding ribonucleotides in the growing RNA chain.

slavikrds [6]

Answer:

social facilitation

Explanation:

The concept of social facilitation was first proposed by Norman Triplett. After observing a cycling event, in which he noticed that cyclist performed better when they have others around competing with them, rather than cycling alone just against time. This led him to duct an experiment where he gave some children strings to wound fishing reel. He observed that, children wound the fishing reel faster in the presence of other children performing similar task, when compared to when perform such task alone.

This concept discovered by Norman Triplett, best illustrates the concept of social facilitation, which posits that, individuals tend to perform better in the mere presence of others or when they perform a task with others, than when performing the task alone.
