Assertion (A): | Today, DNA from a single cell is enough to perform DNA fingerprinting analysis. |
Reason (R): | The use of PCR has increased the sensitivity of DNA fingerprinting. |
1. | Both (A) and (R) are True and (R) correctly explains (A) |
2. | (A) is True but (R) is False |
3. | (A) is False but (R) is True |
4. | Both (A) and (R) are True but (R) does not correctly explain (A) |
1. | They are polynucleotides. |
2. | Together with polysaccharides and polypeptides, these comprise the true macromolecular fraction of any living tissue or cell. |
3. | A nucleotide has three chemically distinct components: a heterocyclic compound, a monosaccharide, and a phosphoric acid or a phosphate. |
4. | The hexose sugar found in polynucleotides is either ribose or 2’deoxyribose. |
I: | Identifying all the genes that are expressed as RNA is referred to as Expressed Sequence Tags. |
II: | The blind approach of simply sequencing the whole set of genome that contained all the coding and non-coding sequence, and later assigning different regions in the sequence with functions is referred to as Sequence Annotation. |
1. | it should be able to express itself in the form of 'Mendelian characters' |
2. | it should be able to generate its replica |
3. | it should be unstable structurally and chemically |
4. | it should provide the scope for slow changes that are required for evolution |
