Q. No.The salient features of the Double-helix structure of DNA include all the following except:
1.
It is made of two polynucleotide chains, where the backbone is constituted by
sugar-phosphate, and the bases project inside.
2.
The two chains have anti-parallel polarity.
3.
The bases in two strands are paired through hydrogen bonds (H-bonds)
forming base pairs (bp).
4.
The two chains are coiled in a left-handed fashion.

Consider the two statements:
| Assertion (A): | It is necessary to define the boundaries that would demarcate the region and the strand of DNA that would be transcribed. |
| Reason (R): | In transcription, only a segment of DNA and only one of the strands is copied into RNA. |
| 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. | Both (A) and (R) are False. |
