Answer:

BRCA1 and BRCA2 genes

Explanation:

The BRCA1 and BRCA2 genes are tumor suppressor genes that encode breast cancer susceptibility proteins involved in repairing double-strand DNA breaks (DSBs) by the mechanism of homologous recombination. This mechanism uses the sister chromatid of the homologous chromosome as template for repairing DSBs. It has been shown that mutations in BRCA1 and BRCA2 genes alter the molecular mechanism of homologous recombination DNA repair, thereby mutations are not repaired appropriately and persist in the DNA of tumor cells.

This is a standard table of the genetic code. A cell’s protein are made in response to the genetic code contained in the cell’s
galben [10]

DNA in prokaryotes frees in the cytoplasm, while in eukaryotes (like humans) DNA is in the nucleus.

Human DNA is found in the cells that make up your tissues and organs: nerve cells, liver cells (liver), skin cells ... They are extremely numerous, more than 50 000 billion and have very diversified functions! Most of our cells are microscopic (20 to 30 micrometers) and contain an even smaller nucleus structure.

Each nucleus contains the genetic material of the cell, the chromosomes.

Mitochondrial DNA can also be found in mitochondria, but mitochondria are much smaller than nuclear DNA.

HELP!
Lynna [10]

Answer:

A. a protein

Explanation:

Proteins function as enzymes in most of the catalyzing reactions, that increases the rate of reaction within cell.

Proteins are consist of multiple numbers of amino acids and the twisting and folding amino acids provide a unique identity to enzymes. Not all the proteins are enzymes but all the enzymes are proteins.

For example: Trypsin, Pepsin, and Lipases.

Hence, the correct option is "A. a protein".
