Question

Draw an X on the template in the space provided for your response to indicate the phase during which the replication of damaged DNA would occur.

Answer 1

Answer and Explanation:

Replicating DNA is delicate and can breakdown in the process of duplication. The source of DNA rearrangements is broken chromosomes. These chromosomes can alter the cell genetic program. These modifications can activate a growth advantage in a single cell in our body—tumor rise when that cell remains to divide. Cells have defense mechanisms to protect us from these harmful actions. In the eukaryotic cell cycle, chromosomes segregate during the M phase and duplicate during the S phase. The S phase is known as the phase of DNA synthesis, while the M phase is known as the mitosis phase. Any problem with DNA replication activates a checkpoint during the S phase. A checkpoint is a flow of signaling events that places the phase on hold till the issue is resolved—the checkpoint of the S phase work as a surveillance camera. The main purpose of the replication is to produce an identical double strand. Each strand in a DNA molecule functions as a template for a new DNA strand.
