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.

ipn [44]

Answer:

E. Photosynthesis is an anabolic reaction, and cellular respiration is a catabolic reaction.

Explanation:

Anabolic or endergonic reaction is a type of reaction that uses energy.  In this type of reaction small, simple molecules join to make larger complex molecules. For example photosynthesis, during which carbon dioxide and water are react to synthesise glucose and oxygen.

Catabolic or exergonic reaction is a type of reaction that gives energy. in this reaction  large molecules are broken down into smaller ones. For example respiration, during which glucose in presence of oxygen is broken into carbon dioxide and water.
