Q. No.Hershey and Chase proved DNA as the genetic material as in their experiment:
(1) Bacteria that were infected with viruses that had radioactive proteins were not radioactive
(2) Bacteria that were infected with viruses that had radioactive DNA were radioactive
(3) Both 1 and 2 are correct
(4) Both 1 and 2 are incorrect
(1) Bacteria that were infected with viruses that had radioactive proteins were not radioactive
(2) Bacteria that were infected with viruses that had radioactive DNA were radioactive

(4) Both 1 and 2 are incorrect
RNA is not the genetic material in:
1. Tobacco mosaic virus
2. QB bacteriophage
3. HIV
4. Archaebacteria
DNA is structurally and chemically more stable than RNA because of all the following except:
(1) It has thymine instead of uracil
(2) 2’ –OH is absent in DNA
(3) It replicates itself based on complementary base pairing
(4) It does not have any catalytic role
The protein synthesizing machinery of a cell has evolved around:

Which of the following acts as the substrate and provide energy for DNA replication?
(1) Dideoxyribonucleoside triphosphates
(2) Ribonucleoside triphosphates
(3) Deoxyribonucleoside triphosphates
(4) Deoxyribonucleotide triphosphates
The discontinuously synthesized DNA fragments are later joined by:
