A: Insertional inactivation method helps to differentiate recombinant from non-recombinant
R: Selection of recombinant in this method depends upon inactivation of antibiotics
In the following questions a statement of assertion (A) is followed by a statement of reason (R).
1. If both Assertion & Reason are true and the reason is the correct explanation of the assertion, then mark (1)
2. If both Assertion & Reason are true but the reason is not the correct explanation of the assertion, then mark (2)
3. If Assertion is true statement but Reason is false, then mark (3)
4. If both Assertion and Reason are false statements, then mark (4)


 
  1. If both the assertion and the reason are true and the reason is a correct explanation of the assertion
  2. If both the assertion and reason are true but the reason is not a correct explanation of the assertion
  3. If the assertion is true but the reason is false
  4. If both the assertion and reason are false

Restriction endonucleases are bacterial enzymes that cut double stranded DNA. These restriction enzymes do not cut their own DNA because
1.  The bacterium does not contain the specific recognition sequence
2.  The DNA is packed with histones
3.  The specific recognition sequences are masked with methyl groups
4.  Restriction endonucleases cut viral DNA only

Given below are two statements one is labelled as Assertion (A) and the other is labelled as Reason (R).
Assertion (A): When a particular restriction enzyme cuts strands of DNA, overhanging stretches or sticky ends are formed.
Reason (R): Some restriction enzymes cut the strand of DNA a little away from the centre of palindromic site.
 
In light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below:
1. Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) correctly explains (A).
2. Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) does not correctly explain (A).
3. (A) is true, (R) is false.
4. (A) is false, (R) is true.
