Mutations are likely to persist after SOS repair, but not after light-induced or excision repair.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

SOS repair is an error-prone repair mechanism that can introduce mutations, while light-induced repair (such as photoreactivation) and excision repair (such as nucleotide excision repair and base excision repair) are more accurate processes that aim to restore the original DNA sequence without introducing mutations.
