Q. No.The length of the DNA molecule greatly exceeds the dimensions of the nucleus in eukaryotic cells. How is this DNA accommodated?
1. Deletion of non-essential genes
2. Super-coiling in nucleosomes
3. DNAse digestion
4. Through the elimination of repetitive DNA
Differentiation of organs and tissues in a developing organism is associated with:
1. developmental mutations
2. differential expression of genes
3. lethal mutations
4. deletion of a gene
The two polynucleotide chains in DNA are:
1. parallel
2. discontinuous
3. antiparallel
4. semiconservative
Amino acid sequence, in protein synthesis is decided by the sequence of:
1. t-RNA
2. m-RNA
3. c-DNA
4. r-RNA
Antiparallel strands of a DNA molecule mean that:
| 1. | one strand turns anti-clockwise |
| 2. | the phosphate groups of two DNA strands, at their ends, share the same position |
| 3. | the phosphate groups at the start of two DNA strands are in opposite positions (pole) |
| 4. | one strand turns clockwise |
