DIRECTIONS : Each question contains STATEMENT-1 (Assertion) and STATEMENT-2 (Reason). Each question has 4 choices (a), (b), (c) and (d) out of which ONLY ONE is correct.
Statement 1 : UAA, UAG and UGA terminate protein synthesis.
Statement 2 : They are not recognised by tRNA.

Statement 1 : One of the two strands of DNA is called sense strand and other is called antisense strand.
Statement 2 : Sense strand of DNA forms complementary RNA.
Only one of the two strands of DNA possesses correct hereditary information. It is known as sense strand. Its complementary strand is called antisense strand. Antisense RNA that is made from the DNA strand that means it is complementary to the sense strand of the DNA.
Removal of introns and joining the exons in a defined order in a transcription unit is called:
Splicing is the removal of introns and joining the exons in a defined order in a transcription unit. In molecular biology, splicing is a modification of RNA after transcription,in which introns are removed and exons are joined.
A sequential expression of a set of human genes
A sequential expression of a set of human genes is the DNA sequence. Because gene is the functional part of DNA sequence.
Thirty percent of the bases in a sample of DNA extracted from eukaryotic cells is adenine. What percentage of cytosine is present in this DNA?
If 30 percent of DNA is adenine, then by Chargaff’s rule 30 percent will be thymine.The remaining 40 percent of the DNA is cytosine and guanine. Since the ratio of cytosine to guanine must be equal, then each accounts for 20 percent of the bases.
Chargaff’s rules of base pairing states that
Chargaff found that the relative ratios of purine to pyrimidines were equal. Adenine and guanine are purines and cytosine and thymine are pyrimidines;therefore,ratios of adenine and thymine should be equal. Chargaff also found that there is no conserved ratio between specific pairs (e.g., A + T and G + C).
Experiments by Avery, McLeod, and McCarty supported DNA as the genetic material by showing that
These researchers were able to isolate nearly pure DNA samples. It was only these samples that provided transformation activity.
