Indicate whether each of the following statements is true of depurination (DP), deamination (DA), or pyrimidine dimer formation (DF). A given statement may be true of any, all, or none of these processes. This process is caused by spontaneous hydrolysis of a glycosidic bond. This process is induced by ultraviolet light. This can happen to guanine but not to cytosine. This can happen to thymine but not to adenine. This can happen to thymine but not to cytosine. Repair involves a DNA glycosylase. Repair involves an endonuclease. Repair involves DNA ligase. Repair depends on the existence of separate copies of the genetic information in the two strands of the double helix. Repair depends on cleavage of both strands of the double helix.

As studied this week in the cell cycle, we saw how a cell moves through its life with a plan. as you transition from a student at uma to a valued member of your chosen career field, what will you put into place in your life to manage and to fit the new responsibilities of your career into your current life?

The kidney filters potentially toxic substances in the blood, and thus “clears” the blood of those substances. this clearance function is dependent upon and proportional to the diffusion gradient of the substance across filtering capillaries, i. e. if the concentration of the substance is doubled, twice as much will be cleared from each ml of blood that is filtered. suppose that the body produces a constant amount of a substance x per unit of time. the kidneys eliminate substance x at a rate directly proportional to the concentration of the substance and the volume of blood cleared each minute (c): elimination = c × [x], where [x] is the steady-state concentration of substance x. imagine an individual with an initial concentration of x equal to [x]0 who develops kidney disease. her baseline clearance c0 drops to one half of the original (½c0). what is the new steady state concentration of x? (for simplicity, assume that substance x is 100% filtered by the kidney).
