A. DNA repair

Explanation:

The p53 protein acts as a tumor remover by controlling a set of genes required for the cell division. This protein protects the genome by restricting abnormal cells to proliferate avoiding the replication of damaged DNA. The first resource the protein uses and prometes is DNA repair and if the DNA has irreparable damage, the last resource used by this protein is apoptosis.
