Cells pass through a G2 checkpoint before entering mitosis. Ideally, if DNA damage is 2 detected, the cells do not enter mitosis

until the damage is repaired. Why is DNA damage repaired before cells enter mitosis? *
A.) So that another round of DNA synthesis does not have to take place

B.) So that the chromosomes can align at the metaphase plate during mitosis

C.) So that the cytoplasm can be divided equally between the two daughter cells

D.)So that healthy daughter cells are produced, allowing the organism to continue growing

I think that the answer is D. The cell employs the G2 checkpoint to check for DNA damage and completeness of DNA replication. This is done to ensure that cell division runs smoothly which means that healthy daughter cells, with complete and undamaged DNA, will be produced. At this point, all necessary repairs are applied.

podryga [215]

Answer;

-DNA molecule

Explanation;

-According to cell theory; All known living things are made up of one or more cells. All living cells arise from pre-existing cells by division. The cell is the fundamental unit of structure and function in all living organisms.

-The modern version of the Cell Theory includes the ideas that:

  • Energy flow occurs within cells.
  • Heredity information (DNA) is passed on from cell to cell.
  • All cells have the same basic chemical composition.

-Therefore the study of DNA molecule was instrumental in the formulation of the modern cell theory.

Sauron [17]
A pedigree shows the genotypes of the family members 
in autosomal recessive disorders, the diseased genes are inherited from the parents. For the person to get the disease both diseased genes should be there in the genotype as its a recessive disorder.
the dominant gene - H
   recessive gene    - h
for a person to get a disease, genotype should be hh, as its autosomal recessive. If the person is normal he/ she could have the genotype HH or could be Hh and thats called a carrier.
the offspring will receive one gene from the mother and one from the father
