Statement I: | RNA is the genetic material of QB bacteriophage. |
Statement II: | Among the two nucleic acids, the DNA is a better genetic material. |
1. | Statement I is correct; Statement II is incorrect |
2. | Statement I is correct; Statement II is correct |
3. | Statement I is incorrect; Statement II is correct |
4. | Statement I is incorrect; Statement II is incorrect |
I: | It is nearly universal among all organisms. |
II: | It is ambiguous, meaning that one codon can code for multiple amino acids. |
1. | HGP aimed to sequence the entire genome of a single individual. |
2. | HGP was initiated in the early 1990s and completed in 2003. |
3. | HGP focused solely on mapping the genes responsible for hereditary diseases. |
4. | HGP excluded the study of non-coding regions of the genome. |
Assertion (A): | Both strands of DNA are not transcribed. |
Reason (R): | Transcribing both strands would create complementary RNA molecules that would bind to each other and interfere with normal cell processes. |
1. | Both (A) and (R) are True and (R) is the correct explanation of (A). |
2. | Both (A) and (R) are True but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A). |
3. | (A) is True but (R) is False. |
4. | (A) is False but (R) is True. |
1. | It would prevent the operon from being turned off. |
2. | It would result in the inability to metabolize lactose. |
3. | It would enhance the binding of the repressor to the operator. |
4. | It would prevent the repressor from binding to the operator. |

2. | The majority of the human genome consists of coding sequences. |
3. | Each chromosome contains a single gene that determines human traits. |
4. | All human beings have unique sequences of DNA with no similarities. |
1. | It must be able to replicate. |
2. | It must be dynamic, changing rapidly in response to environmental conditions. |
3. | It must be able to express itself in the form of phenotypic traits. |
4. | It must be able to undergo mutation. |
