Which part of the cell cycle is disrupted when you get a sunburn?

Biology

sergey [27]3 years ago

Answer:

UV radiation basically damages skin by transferring energy to molecules in your skin, such as DNA, fat, proteins, etc. These molecules, which are already in their proper arrangement, absorb this energy. If the molecules absorb enough energy, the bonds holding them together can break, forming a new shape completely. For a cell that already has been chugging along smoothly thanks to specific molecules with specific shapes doing specific jobs, this is a big deal and causes serious problems.

Explanation:

UV radiation damage to DNA is a particular problem. DNA is a huge molecule and actually quite fragile. When a molecule of DNA is present in a cell, it resembles a zipper: it has two strands, with each strand tightly bound to corresponding molecules on the opposite side, called bases.

Each of the following relates to an aspect of evolution by natural selection. Explain the following. ii. Natural selection and t
dlinn [17]

         The first one, ii. Natural selection and the formation of inseticide resistant insects or antibiotic resistant bacteria.

          This can be explained in very simple way. As we all know, natural selection works in a way that only that adapted living beings are going to survive through a specific environment, whether it's because they can grab their food without too much work, or even that they can adapt to the weather. When we use inseticide, we are killing lots of non-resistant insects, and what's left are those that are resistant to this inseticide, and they'll reproduce again, and again we'll go through the same process, but remember, this insect is now stronger and more resistant that before.

            The second case, iii. speciation and isolation give three examples how it may occur.

            Well. the allopatric speciation and isolation will happen when theres a geographic barrier between one species. This one then is divided into two diffent habitats, but what can divide than could be a mountain, a tree, a river, a rock, anything. And this could be too called as a geographic isolation, because in this new environment, species are going to develop in a different way.

The substances that are present when a chemical reaction begins are the products.
Sav [38]

The new substances that are formed during a chemical reaction are called the products. The original substances are called the reactants. For example, when hydrogen gas is added to oxygen gas and ignited, the new substance water is formed. The reactants are hydrogen and oxygen.

1. When during the cell cycle is a cell’s DNA replicated?
Llana [10]

Answer: The correct answers are-

1) C) S Phase

2) A) prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase.

Cell cycle corresponds to the division of cell, which occurs primarily through two phases that are - Interphase ( which has G1, S, and G2 phase) during which cell grows, duplicates its genetic material and M ( mitotic phase) phase during which cell divides.

S phase ( synthesis phase) corresponds to the duplication of the genetic material (DNA). It takes place place after G1 ( Gap 1 phase) phase.

2) Mitosis is a type of cell divison in which one parent cell divides to produce two daughter cells with same number of chromosomes. Prophase is the first phase, followed by metaphase, anpahse, and telophase.
