(a) From both ends of chromosome
simultaneously
(b) Several sites along DNA of a
chromosome simulatneously
(c) From one end of chromosome to the
other
(d) From centromere to either end



  1. Which of the following statements is
    correct?
    i. The biochemical nature of genetic
    material was not defined from the
    experiments conducted by Griffith.
    ii. Working on transformation Avery et al
    concluded DNA is genetic material but
    not all biologists were convinced.
    iii. RNA is the genetic material in TMv,
    QB bacteriophage etc.
    iv. DNA is the predominant genetic
    material while RNA performs dynamic
    functions of messenger and adapter.
    v. Viruses having DNA genome and
    having shorter life span mutate and
    evolve faster.
    (a) iii and iv (b) All except v
    (c) i and ii (d) All

  2. DNA segment, 3’ TAC ATG GCT CCG
    5’, transcribes one mRNA. Four tRNAs
    with anticodons
    i. AUG ii. UAC
    iii. CCG and
    iv. GCU are required for translation. What
    is the order of tRNAs ....
    (a) i, ii, iv, iii (b) ii, i, iv, iii
    (c) i, ii, iii, iv (d) ii, i, iii, iv

  3. Select the correct statements-
    i. In eukaryotes, RNA pol III catalyes the
    synthesis of 5SrRNA, tRNA and SnRNA
    ii. DNA generally acts as a template for
    the synthesis of DNA and RNA
    iii. During protein synthesis, amino acid
    gets attached to tRNA with the help
    of aminoacyl synthetase, ATP is also
    used.
    iv. The first amino acid in any
    polypeptide chain of prokaryote is


always formylated methionine but in
eukaryotes it is methionine.
v. A single anticodon can recognize more
than one codon of m-RNA. Thus
phenomenon is termed as Wobble
hypothesis.
(a) ii and iii are correct
(b) i and ii are correct
(c) iv and v are correct
(d) All are correct


  1. Strand of DNA that functions as template
    for mRNA transcription is.
    i. Coding strand
    ii. Non-coding strand
    iii. Sense strand
    iv. Antisense strand the correct answer is ..
    (a) i and iii (b) ii and iii
    (c) ii and i (d) ii and iv

  2. What is added to the 3’-end of many
    eukaryots t-RNAs during post
    transcriptional processing?
    (a) Amino acid
    (b) Trinucleotide CCA
    (c) 7 methyl GTP
    (d) Poly ‘A’ tail

  3. The ratio between purines and pyrimidines
    in the starting codon
    (a) 2:1 (b) 1:1 (c) 1:2 (d) 3:1

  4. Select the Correct statement ...
    i. RNA polymerase I transcribesrRNA
    ii. RNA polymerase II transcribes snRNA
    iii. RNA polymerase III transcribes
    hnRNA
    iv. RNA polymerase II transcribes hnRNA
    (a) i and iv are correct
    (b) ii and iii are correct
    (c) i and ii are correct
    (d) i, ii and iv are correct

  5. Part of DNA Polymerase I-enzyme after
    removal of 5’----3’ Exonuclease activity
    exhibiting structural domain is called
    (a) Okazaki fragment
    (b) Template Strand
    (c) Klenow fragment
    (d) Replication bubble
