Assertion: Transcription and translation can be coupled in bacteria.
Reason: The mRNA does not require any processing and both processes take place in same compartment.
1. Both assertion and reason are true and the reason is the correct explanation of the assertion.
2. Both assertion and reason are true but the reason is not the correct explanation of the assertion.
3. Assertion is true but reason is false.

Assertion: An adapter molecule, that on one hand can read the genetic code and on the other hand can bind to specific amino acids, is required for translation of proteins.
Reason: Amino acids have no structural specialities to read the code uniquely.

In the lac operon, transcription is regulated by a repressor protein and only takes place in the presence of lactose. Which of the following statements is correct?
1. The repressor protein binds to the promoter site to inhibit transcription.
2. Lactose binds to the promoter site to initiate transcription.
3. Lactose binds to the repressor protein to inhibit transcription.
4. The repressor protein binds the operator site to inhibit transcription.
