I: | A is 3’-5’ direction. |
II: | B is hydrogen bond. |
III: | C is phosphodiester bond. |
1. | a substituted pyrimidine found only in DNA |

1. | Maurice Wilkins and Rosalind Franklin |
2. | Beadle and Tatum |
3. | Temin and Baltimore |
4. | Avery–MacLeod–McCarty |
Assertion (A): | If the sequence of bases in one strand of the dsDNA molecule is known then the sequence in other strand can be predicted. |
Reason (R): | The base pairing in a dsDNA molecule is complementary to each other. |
1. | Both (A) and (R) are True but (R) does not correctly explain (A). |
2. | (A) is True but (R) is False. |
3. | (A) is False but (R) is True. |
4. | Both (A) and (R) are True and (R) correctly explains (A). |
I: | It is made of two polynucleotide chains |
II: | The backbone is constituted by sugar-phosphate |
III: | The two chains have anti-parallel polarity. |
IV: | The bases in two strands are paired through hydrogen bonds (H-bonds) forming base pairs (bp) |
Assertion: | The distance between a bp in a B-DNA helix is approximately 0.34 nm. |
Reason: | The pitch of the B-DNA helix is 3.4 nm and there are roughly 10 bp in each turn. |
1. | Both Assertion and Reason are true but Reason does not correctly explain the Assertion. |
2. | Assertion is true but Reason is False. |
3. | Assertion is false but Reason is True. |
4. | Both Assertion and Reason are true and Reason correctly explains the Assertion. |
Assertion: | Retroviruses are one known exception to the central dogma in molecular biology as proposed by Francis Crick. |
Reason: | In retroviruses a sequence of nucleotides is copied from an RNA template during the synthesis of a molecule of DNA. |
1. | Both Assertion and Reason are true but Reason does not correctly explain the Assertion. |
2. | Assertion is true but Reason is False. |
3. | Assertion is false but Reason is True. |
4. | Both Assertion and Reason are true and Reason correctly explains the Assertion. |
