Identify the correct statements from the given statements and choose the correct option:
I: | Both prokaryotic and eukaryotic mRNAs have a 5' cap. |
II: | Only prokaryotic mRNAs are polyadenylated at the 3' end. |
III: | In prokaryotes, transcription is coupled to translation. |
IV: | In eukaryotes, RNA splicing occurs after the mRNA is transported into the cytoplasm. |
V: | RNA splicing requires the formation of a spliceosome. |
VI: | Both prokaryotic and eukaryotic mRNAs are synthesized by RNA polymerase. |
1. | III, V, and VI only |
2. | II, III, V, and VI only |
3. | I, III, V, and VI only |
4. | I, III, IV, V, and VI only |
The correct chronological order of the steps of translation of a prokaryotic mRNA will be:
I: | attachment of the initiator tRNA onto the start codon |
II: | binding of the mRNA to small ribosome subunit of a ribosome |
III: | attachment of the large ribosome subunit to the mRNA |
IV: | translocation of the ribosome to move a new codon to be in the A site |
V: | entry of a charged tRNA into the A site |
1. | I | II | V | III | IV |
2. | II | I | III | V | IV |
3. | I | II | III | V | IV |
4. | II | I | IV | III | V |
Assertion (A): | tRNA is the adapter molecule in the flow of genetic information in a typical cell. |
Reason (R): | tRNA has some unusual bases present in the sequence of its nucleotides. |
1. | Both (A) and (R) are True and (R) correctly explains (A) |
2. | Both (A) and (R) are True but (R) does not correctly explain (A) |
3. | (A) is True, (R) is False |
4. | (A) is False, (R) is True |
