The best conclusion you can make about the life cycle of this cell is that the cell is in the S phase of interphase and will move next to the G2 phase.
S phase (Synthesis Phase) is the phase of the cell cycle in which all of the chromosomes (DNA) are replicated within the nucleus. During this phase, the DNA is effectively doubled as each chromosome contains two sister chromatids. After the S phase, the cell enters the G2 phase where various proteins (such as microtubules) are synthesized.
Answer:
The correct answer is option E. "direct repair using photolyase has removed many of the pyrimidine dimers from the DNA in an error-free manner, so there are fewer lesions for SOS repair to process".
Explanation:
Photolyase is a type of enzyme that catalyses DNA repair from damage caused by exposure to ultraviolet light. Photolyase requires activation by exposure visible light, particularly from the violet end of the visible spectrum. If the Petri plates of the bacteria exposed to UV are located in an incubator that is closely at a large sunny windows, it is very likely that the bacteria is performing direct DNA repair using its photolyase enzymes.
Answer:
Excretory systems regulate the chemical composition of body fluids by removing metabolic wastes and retaining the proper amounts of water, salts, and nutrients. Components of this system in vertebrates include the kidneys, liver, lungs, and skin.
Explanation:
Answer: habitat preference
Explanation:
One of the driving factors for ecological speciation that does not allow interbreeding between the members of a species is habitat preference. Some members of a species have a different preference for habitat than others in terms of habitat preference. They reside and do not interbreed in various environments. These two populations of a species live in diverse environments acquire genetic differences over generations and interbreed only with members of their own populations.
