The UTR [untranslated regions] in an mRNA:
| 1. | Are present only at 5’ end and are not required for efficient translation |
| 2. | Are present only at 3’ end and are not required for efficient translation |
| 3. | Are present at both 5’ and 3’ends and are not required for efficient translation |
| 4. | Are present at both 5’ and 3’ ends and are required for an efficient translation process |
In eukaryotes, RNA polymerase III transcribes:
| 1. | hnRNA, snRNAs and 5.8S RNA |
| 2. | tRNA, 5.8S RNA and snRNAs |
| 3. | tRNA, 5SrRNA and snRNAs |
| 4. | rRNAs – 28S, 18S and 5S |
Consider the following two statements:

The correct statements is/are:
| 1. | I only | 2. | II Only |
| 3. | I and II | 4. | None |
| 1. | 35S | 2. | 32P |
| 3. | 15N | 4. | None |
