4. | is not required for using lactose as a source of energy by the cell |
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. |

Statement I: | In prokaryotes, the positively charged DNA is held with some negatively charged proteins in a region called nucleoid. |
Statement II: | In eukaryotes, the negatively charged DNA is wrapped around the positively charged histone octamer to form nucleosome. |
