What aspect of dna structure makes it possible for the proteins of nucleotide excision repair to recognize many different types

of dna damage?

Answer:

The regularity of DNA's overall structure.

Explanation:

DNA is the genetic material of almost all the living organisms but RNA may also acts as the genetic material in some viruses only. The mutation in DNA may cause characteristic disease in individual.

The nucleotide excision repair mechanism excise the wrong nucletide and replace with the correct nucleotide. The overall DNA structure like its nucleotide sequence, the size and angles between the DNA base pair, its methylation helps in recognizing different DNA type.

Thus, the correct answer is the regularity of DNA's overall structure.

Connective tissues are made of different combinations of ground substance and fibers. As you compare slides of connective tissue
ASHA 777 [7]

The connective tissue is a type of the animal tissue which is developed from the mesoderm. This tissue is present between the other tissues. The composition of the different ground tissues vary based on the amount of fibers and ground tissue present in it. The connective tissue which is high in collagen fibers will be the strongest and toughest.

Hence, the answer is 'connective tissue high in collagen fibers'.

A bird that preys on moths is introduced to the habitat with moths and trees like the ones shown below.
Rufina [12.5K]

I believe the answer is: The dark colored moths will experience disruptive selection


The bird prey on moth and possibly identify the moth by visual sense. The moth has two type of color: dark and light. The trees in the area is more light coloured so the black moth will be identified easier as their color is more contrast to the tree. As the dark moth easier to identify, they will be predated more and their population will be reduced. When a trait has advantage than the other, disruptive selection happens.

HELP PLEASE!!!!What are the different types of limiting factors found in nature?
balu736 [363]
There are both physical and biological limiting factors found in nature.

-Physical factors (abiotic factors) include temperature, water availability, oxygen, salinity, light, food and nutrients.

-Biological factors (biotic factors) involve interactions between organisms such as predation, competition, parasitism and 
herbivory.

A, B, C, D and E are pathogens of different diseases for human beings. The route of entry of pathogens in human body is differen
Goryan [66]

Answer:

Microorganisms which causes diseases is known as pathogen.

Explanation:

<u>PATHOGEN -:</u> Pathogens are agents that live in a host and are responsible for causing infections or diseases in that host, such as a human being. Microorganisms such as bacteria , viruses , fungi or protozoa, or other organisms such as parasites, worms and even contagious proteins such as prions, may be pathogens.

<u>Viruses:</u> Viruses are micro-organisms that are composed of nucleic acid and covered by a protein sheet. A lipid (fatty) outer layer is also present in some viruses. Enveloped viruses are called these. Non-enveloped viruses are considered those that do not have this lipid outer layer. Only inside their host's living cells are viruses able to replicate.<u> EXAMPLE -:</u>  Influenza (influenza A and B viruses) and the common cold (rhinovirus) are examples of infections caused by viruses.

<u>Bacteria: </u>These are microorganisms which have a nucleus containing DNA surrounded by a cell wall or membrane. Among bacteria, the composition of the cell wall differs. If they are able to access food and nutrients, they have a more complex structure than viruses and can multiply beyond the host.<u> EXAMPLE -: </u> Foodborne diseases can be caused by bacteria such as Salmonella enterica and Escherichia coli, while Staphylococcus aureus can cause skin infections.

<u>Fungi:</u> Fungi are single-celled or multicelled species that can live outside a host. They consume food and nutrients created after digestive enzymes have been secreted into their atmosphere. <u>example-: </u> The foot of the athlete (Trichophyton mentagrophytes) and yeast infections (Candida albicans) are examples of infections caused by fungi.

<u>Prions:</u> These are infectious agents made up entirely of proteins and capable of transferring to other prion proteins their infectious properties.<u> EXAMPLE -: </u>Extreme infectious diseases such as bovine spongiform encephalopathy (mad cow disease) and variant Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (vCJD) can be caused by prions.

<u>Protozoa: </u>Protozoa are single-celled organisms that display habits that are similar to animals, such as the ability to travel through water, and are capable of harvesting other microorganisms. They are able to live outside the human host, but when they enter the human host and spread, causing infections and diseases, they may also be parasitic in nature. <u> EXAMPLE -: </u>Malaria and giardia include common infections

  • <u>Yes , pathogen enter into the body directly -:</u> Direct contact infections spread when, through direct physical contact with blood or body fluids, disease-causing microorganisms move from the infected person to the healthy person. Touching, kissing, sexual contact, contact with oral secretions, or contact with bodily lesions are examples of direct contact.
  • <u>INCUBATION PERIOD OF A PATHOGEN -</u>:The period of incubation is the interval between exposure to a pathogenic organism, a drug, or radiation, and when the first signs and symptoms are evident.
