Cells in culture have been exposed to a large dose of UV light. What is the specific result of this treatment? What is the general mechanism used to repair this damage? What would the DNA look like if these repair enzymes were inhibited? Before: After: Incoming UV photon

Explain the damaging effect of ultraviolet light on bacteria. How are bacteria able to repair the damage? (5 points) List 5 groups of disinfectants or antiseptics and explain how each exerts its antimicrobial effect. (10 points)

A bacteriophage with a lytic life cycle develops a mutation that allows it to now also go through the Iysogenic cycle. How would this provide an evolutionary advantage over the other bacteriophages that can only spread through lytic cycles?
