The DNA dependent polymerases catalyze:

| 2. | Only in 5’ – 3’ direction |
| 3. | In both directions |
| 4. | In neither directions |
DNA is structurally and chemically more stable than RNA because of the following except:
| 1. | It has thymine instead of uracil |
| 2. | 2’ –OH is absent in DNA |
| 3. | It replicates itself based on complementary base pairing |
| 4. | It does not have any catalytic role |
Who proposed a semi-conservative mode of replication for DNA?
| 1. | Watson and Crick | 2. | Meselson and Stahl |
| 3. | Hershey and Chase | 4. | Beadle and Tatum |
The discontinuously synthesized DNA fragments are later joined by:
| 1. | DNA helicase | 2. | Topoisomerase |
| 3. | DNA ligase | 4. | DNA polymerase |
If E.coli was allowed to grow for 80 minutes after transfer from 15N to 14N medium, the number of hybrid density DNA molecules would be:
| 1. | 2 | 2. | 16 |
| 3. | 14 | 4. | 8 |
In eukaryotes, the sequences that appear in mature or processed mRNA are called:
| 1. | Introns | 2. | Cistrons |
| 3. | Exons | 4. | Mutons |
What radioactive isotope was used by Meselson and Stahl to label DNA in their experiment?
| 1. | 35S | 2. | 15N |
| 3. | 32P | 4. | None |
