The answers that apply are;

  1. reproduction of the organism
  2. growth of the organism
  3. repair of damaged or dead cells
  4. reproduction of new cells

In the reproduction of the organism, mitosis is required in the generation of daughter cells in sexual reproduction.

In the growth of an organism, mitosis is key in the process of a cell replicating its genetic material and itself.

When a cell has been damaged, it is eliminated through apoptosis and digestion after which new cells divide by mitosis to replace the damaged cell.

Mitosis is also required in the reproduction of new cells from existing ones.

The formation of pyrimidine dimers results from which of the following?
umka2103 [35]

Answer:

exposure to ultraviolet radiation is a correct answer.

Explanation:

Ultraviolet light exposure results in the formation of pyrimidine dimers. Ultraviolet radiation damage the DNA by resulting in chemical changes.

Ultraviolet radiation is absorbed by the pyrimidine bases( cytosine and thymine in DNA) and result in the formation of covalent bonds between the succeeding bases.

The formation of the pyrimidine dimers results in the distortions of DNA helix and disrupt the base-pairing during the replication of DNA which results in a mutation.
