When the replication machinery encounters a single-strand break, the replication fork collapses resulting in a double-strand break. Which of the following would be the fourth step in repairing this damage?

Once the strand invasion is complete, branched migration occurs. C. The broken ends are processed, with the 5' ending strand selectively degraded to create 3' overhangs. D.
