a. | Salmonella typhimurium | (i) | Source of EcoRI |
b. | Bacillus thuringiensis | (ii) | Used in developing transgenic tobacco plant |
c. | Agrobacterium tumefaciens |
(iii) | Used in creating first recombinant DNA |
d. | Escherichia coli | (iv) | Gene used in creating biopesticide |
(a) | The DNA fragments obtained will have 'sticky ends' |
(b) | Construction of rDNA molecule would not be possible |
(c) | Resultant DNA fragments with overhanging streches can be ligated with the help of DNA ligase |
Assertion(A): | The restriction endonucleases can recognize palindromic sequences. |
Reason(R): | These sequences read the same in both directions of the two complementary DNA strands. |
1. | Both (A) and (R) are True and (R) is the correct explanation of (A). |
2. | Both (A) and (R) are True but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A). |
3. | (A) is True but (R) is False. |
4. | Both (A) and (R) are False. |
Given below are two statements: One is labelled as Assertion (A) and the other is labelled as Reason (R)
Assertion (A): | Restriction enzyme is a type of endonuclease |
Reason (R): | Restriction enzyme cuts the two stands of DNA at specific positions within the DNA |
In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below:
1. | (A) is True but (R) is False. |
2. | (A) is False but (R) is True. |
3. | Both (A) and (R) are True and (R) is the correct explanation of (A). |
