Charging of tRNA during translation is necessary for : 
1. Binding of anticodons of tRNA to the respective codons of mRNA. 
2. Peptide bond formation between two amino acids.
3. Movement of ribosomes from codon to codon.
4. Binding of ribosomes to the mRNA.

A diagramatic illustration of the process of transcription by RNA polymerase-II in eukaryote is given below. Choose the most appropriate statement with respect to the fate of the precursor of mRNA transcribed that will be : 


1. Translation will take place once the precursor of mRNA leaves the nucleus.
2. Translation on mRNA will not take place once the precursor of mRNA leaves the nucleus.
3. Translation will take place in the nucleus.
4. The precursor of mRNA has to be processed further in next step before being translated.

Consider the given two statements:
Assertion: If each strand from a parental DNA acts as a template for synthesis of a new strand, the two
double stranded daughter DNA thus, produced would be identical to the parental DNA molecule.
Reason: For a double stranded DNA, the ratios between Adenine and Thymine and Guanine and Cytosine
are constant and equals one.

1. Both Assertion and Reason are true and Reason correctly explains the Assertion.
2. Assertion is true but Reason is false.
3. Both Assertion and Reason are true but Reason does not correctly explain the Assertion.
4. Assertion is false but Reason is true.
