If a DNA molecule is damaged, it: a. is possible to repair the damage by cleaving out large segments of DNA and resynthesizing the excised portions
b. is possible to replace the damaged DNA with an undamaged copy using recombinases
c. is possible to repair the damage in the site where it occurs cannot be repaired until the next cell cycle must be degraded and replaced with a new DNA molecule

Seen in some gram-positive bacilli, occurs when only the inner portion of a cell wall is deposited across the dividing cell. this new cross wall puts tension on the outer layer of the old cell wall. eventually, the outer wall breaks at its weakest point with a snapping movement that tears it most of the way around. the daughter cells can then remain hanging together almost side by side being held by a small remnant of the original outer wall. choose from the following statements the ones that correctly discuss reproduction using binary fission in a bacterial cell. select all that apply. view available hint(s) select all that apply. due to the stretching of the cytoplasmic membrane, both cells will contain a complete genome. each daughter cell will contain an equal number of organelles. the daughter cell will be a permanently smaller copy of the mother cell but will contain a complete genome. each daughter cell is an exact copy of the other, both genetically and morphologically

Which of the following statements about archaea and bacteria is true? a. neither is single-celled. b. they both have nuclear membranes. c. neither reproduces by binary fission. d. they both lack a nuclear membrane.

The breakdown of food is accomplished by enzymes. a. physical b. chemical c. mechanical d. none of the above
