DNA damage can occur as a result of exposure to chemicals or ultraviolet radiation. What happens during nucleotide excision repa
ir of damaged DNA? A. Enzymes delete an incorrect DNA sequence, pull the gap closed, and join the bases on either side of the gap together B. Enzymes cut out the damaged gene, copy the same gene from the homologous chromosome, and insert the copy C. Enzymes detect an incorrect DNA base pairing in a DNA strand, remove the incorrect base, and insert the correct base. D. Enzymes open the DNA strand, remove a segment of DNA from the strand that contains the damage, and resynthesize the correct DNA sequence.
D. Enzymes open the DNA strand, remove a segment of DNA from the strand that contains the damage, and resynthesize the correct DNA sequence.
Explanation:
From time to time, the DNA gets exposed to certain chemicals or radiation that damages it. However, the cell has a DNA repair mechanism in place called NUCLEOTIDE EXCISION REPAIR (NER).
NUCLEOTIDE EXCISION REPAIR (NER) is one of the DNA repair mechanisms in which certain enzymes open the DNA strand, remove a segment of DNA that contains the damaged gene or nucleotide bases, and resynthesize the correct DNA sequence using the pair of the damaged one.
C) it regulates what goes in and out of the cell Usually the membrane is the organelles that acts like a door. They decide what type of nutrients and molecules go into the cell.
