Chemical (mutagens)
usually either mimic the structure of nucleotides and are inserted in DNA or either cause
chemical changes (such as alkylation) in nucleotides hence causing mismatching during replication.
Radiation, on the other hand, (due to its high energy) causes double-strand breaks in DNA causing an
increased likelihood of mutations during the repair of the DNA by cell
mechanisms.
Answer:
Cell will not replicate because of incomplete DNA replication.
Explanation:
DNA replication is crucial for reproduction/replication of any organism as it involves the duplication of genetic material. So if an organism is unable to perform proper DNA replication it would not be able to reproduce.
DNA polymerase is the enzyme that synthesize the new DNA strand in DNA replication. DNA polymerase can synthesize a strand only in 5'→3' direction. Both of the strands of DNA molecules are opposite in direction. So one strand is synthesized continuously called as leading strand while the other strand is synthesized in form of okazaki fragments called as lagging strand.
The okazaki fragments are joined together by the enzyme ligase. So if Ligase enzyme is absent in bacteria it would not be able to synthesize the lagging strand of DNA and thus could not be able to produce a replica of DNA. And if there is No replication of DNA then No replication of cell would occur.
Similarly, our surroundings are our environment. The social and economic situation of a person is influenced by all environmental influences. It results in progress or positive change in the society and nation's social, economic, and cultural components. Peace and security are brought about by development.
A cell membrane can me compared to a wall, one that is flexible and malleable but strong enough to repel unwanted things from the cell. it also keeps the cell together in its shape and form
