We're not in the habit of answering hw questions for you, rather we want to help YOU solve your own homework.

 

Can you tell us which question you got stuck on? What did you already try? Do you have an idea where to start?

Show us what you already have and what you tried to do, and we will help you go on from there.

Question # 3 -

 

so far:

 

. Three mechanisms exist to repair double-strand breaks (DSBs): non-homologous end joining (NHEJ), microhomology-mediated end joining (MMEJ), and homologous recombination.

Now - How does BRCA Tumor Suppressor Gene participates in this process?
