We hypothesized that the amount of UV radiation exposed has a negative correlation with yeast genetic stability‚ which ultimately determines the number of yeast colonies. In this experiment‚ yeast cells were treated with UV radiation‚ protected by photoprotective agents with different strength (in ascending order: Sunscreen #2‚ #1‚ aluminium foil). After letting it grow for seven days at 37 degrees‚ some grown colonies were counted to determine the effectiveness of photoprotective agents. After comparing

Effects of UV Light Name: sharon reakae INTRODUCTION A mutation is a permanent change in the DNA sequence of a gene. Mutation rates are usually very low but there are factors that can increase the mutation rates. These factors are referred to as mutagens and conclude a range of physic-chemical agents. UV light is a mutagen that affects all living things and has an adverse effect on the replication process of DNA within cells(.Leonard‚2002) In this experiment we examine the effects of UV light
