| Statement I : | In the RNA world, RNA is considered the first genetic material evolved to carry out essential life processes. RNA acts as a genetic material and also as a catalyst for some important biochemical reactions in living systems. Being reactive, RNA is unstable. |
| Statement II : | DNA evolved from RNA and is a more stable genetic material. Its double helical strands being complementary, resist changes by evolving repairing mechanism. |

| 2. | Statement I is incorrect but Statement II is correct |
| 3. | Both Statement I and Statement II are correct |
| 4. | Both Statement I and Statement II are incorrect |
| Statement I: | Transfer RNAs and ribosomal RNA do not interact with mRNA. |
| Statement II: | RNA interference (RNAi) takes place in all eukaryotic organisms as a method of cellular defence. |
