The power of genomic analysis is used to identify, isolate and characterize genes which cause and contribute to the etiology of human diseases.<br \/>\nHuman disease is also studied through the functional analysis of key genes: low density lipoprotein receptors in atherosclerosis and stroke; a broad spectrum of tumor suppressors and oncogenes in cancer, genes directly leading to the disease etiology in neuromuscular disorders such as Alzheimer&#8217;s, Huntington&#8217;s disease, and muscular dystrophies.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/li>\n<li class=\"question-list\">\n<ol start=\"2\" type=\"a\">\n<li>Analyzing VNTR samples of DNA obtained from body fluid or cells<br \/>\n<strong>Explanation:\u00a0<\/strong>VNTR analysis (sometimes called DNA fingerprinting) can be used to identify and match cell samples. In order to use VNTRs, we must have a source of DNA. The DNA can come from any nucleated cell, e.g., white blood cells, skin samples, semen samples, or hair folicles. Red blood cells cannot be used as they do not have a nucleus.<br \/>\nFor a VNTR analysis, the DNA is extracted and cut using restriction endonucleases. A Southern Blot is then performed using various probes.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/li>\n<li class=\"question-list\">\n<ol start=\"4\" type=\"a\">\n<li>DNA segments having radioactive isotopes,\u00a0<strong>Explanation:\u00a0<\/strong>In finger printing the nylon membrane was incubated with radioactive probes. DNA Probes are small fragments of minisatellite DNA tagged with radioactive phosphorous. The probes only attach to the pieces of DNA that they are complementary to \u2013 in this case they attach to the minisatellites in the genome. Radioactive isotopes can be easily identified using scanner.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/li>\n<li class=\"question-list\">\n<ol start=\"4\" type=\"a\">\n<li>DNA fingerprinting,\u00a0<strong>Explanation:\u00a0<\/strong>DNA paternity testing is the most accurate form of paternity testing possible. If DNA patterns between the child and the alleged father do not match on two or more DNA probes, then the alleged father can be totally ruled out. If the DNA patterns between mother, child, and the alleged father match on every DNA probe, the likelihood of paternity is 99.9 percent.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/li>\n<li class=\"question-list\">\n<ol start=\"2\" type=\"a\">\n<li>Regulator gene,\u00a0<strong>Explanation:\u00a0<\/strong>Regulator gene is a gene that regulates the expression of one or more structural genes by controlling the production of a protein (such as a genetic repressor) which regulates their rate of transcription. Regulation of lac operon by repressor is called negative regulation.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/li>\n<li class=\"question-list\">The diameter of the B-DNA is ~20 Angstroms, and the distance between base pairs is ~3.4 Angstroms. The base pairing of opposite strands is stereochemically selective, Adenine always pairing with Thymine, and Guanine with Cytosine.<\/li>\n<li class=\"question-list\">Hydrogen<\/li>\n<li class=\"question-list\">Codon for valine &#8211; AGA<br \/>\nCodon for tyrosine &#8211; GAG<\/li>\n<li class=\"question-list\">&#8216;a&#8217; &#8211; synthesis of leading \/ continuous strand.<br \/>\n&#8216;b&#8217; &#8211; synthesis of lagging \/ discontinuous strand.<\/li>\n<li class=\"question-list\">Reverse transcription is known as teminism, which was first reported by Temin and Baltimore. RNA of some viruses (Retroviruses) first synthesizes DNA through reverse transcription. The DNA then transfers information to RNA, which takes part in translation of coded information to form polypeptide.<\/li>\n<li class=\"question-list\">(i) It codes for methionine amino acid.<br \/>\n(ii) It acts as initiator codon for protein synthesis<\/li>\n<li class=\"question-list\">\n<table class=\"mobile\" border=\"1\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"3\">\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th scope=\"col\"><strong>Transcription in Prokaryotes<\/strong><\/th>\n<th scope=\"col\"><strong>Transcription in Eukaryotes<\/strong><\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>(i) Products of transcription become effective in situ.<\/td>\n<td>(i) Products of transcription come out of the nucleus for functioning in cytoplasm.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>(ii) There is only one RNA-polymerase.<\/td>\n<td>(ii) Three RNA polymerases take part in it.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>(iii) mRNA is polycistronic.<\/td>\n<td>(iii) mRNA is monocistronic.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>(iv) Splicing is not required.<\/td>\n<td>(iv) Splicing is required for removing introns.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/li>\n<li class=\"question-list\">\n<ol start=\"1\">\n<li>The doctor was assertive, patient and pragmatic.<\/li>\n<li>It is possible if the parents are heterozygotes, i.e. Ai x Bi.

The phase consists only of a protein shell containing its genetic material. In a first experiment, they labelled the DNA of phages with radioactive phosphorus &#8211; 32 (the element phosphorus is present in DNA but not present in any of the 20 amino acids from which proteins are made). They allowed the phages to infect E.coli, then removed the protein shells from the infected cells with a blender and separated the cells and viral coats by using a centrifuge. They found that the radioactive tracer was visible only in the pellet of bacterial cells and not in the supernatant containing the protein shells. In a second experiment, they labelled the phages with radioactive Sulfur-35 After separation, the radioactive tracer then was found in the protein shells, but not in the infected bacteria, supporting the hypothesis that the genetic material which infects the bacteria is DNA.<br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone\" title=\"Extra Questions of Class 12 Biology Molecular Basis of Inheritance\" src=\"https:\/\/media-mycbseguide.s3.amazonaws.com\/images\/quesbank\/12\/bio\/ch06\/63609_r1.png\" alt=\"Extra Questions of Class 12 Biology Molecular Basis of Inheritance\" width=\"524\" height=\"227\" \/><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<div class=\"justify-content-center d-flex\">\n<h2>Class 12 Biology Chapter Wise Test Paper<\/h2>\n<ol>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/mycbseguide.com\/blog\/important-questions-for-class-12-biology-reproduction-in-organisms\/\">Reproduction in Organisms<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/mycbseguide.com\/blog\/extra-questions-for-class-12-biology-sexual-reproduction-in-flowering-plants\/\">Sexual Reproduction in Flowering Plants<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/mycbseguide.com\/blog\/class-12-biology-human-reproduction-extra-qusetions\/\">Human Reproduction<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/mycbseguide.com\/blog\/extra-questions-for-class-12-biology-reproductive-health\/\">Reproductive Health<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/mycbseguide.com\/blog\/class-12-biology-principles-of-inheritance-and-variation-extra-questions\/\">Principles of Inheritance and Variation<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/mycbseguide.com\/blog\/extra-questions-of-class-12-biology-molecular-basis-of-inheritance\/\">Molecular Basis of Inheritance<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/mycbseguide.com\/blog\/class-12-biology-evolution-chapter-7-important-questions\/\">Evolution<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/mycbseguide.com\/blog\/practice-questions-of-class-12-biology-human-health-and-disease\/\">Human Health and Disease<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/mycbseguide.com\/blog\/extra-questions-for-class-12-biology-strategies-for-enhancement-in-food-production\/\">Strategies for Enhancement in Food Production<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/mycbseguide.com\/blog\/class-12-biology-microbes-in-human-welfare-extra-questions\/\">Microbes in Human Welfare<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/mycbseguide.com\/blog\/extra-questions-of-class-12-biology-biotechnology-principles-and-processes\/\">Biotechnology Principles and Processes<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/mycbseguide.com\/blog\/extra-questions-for-class-12-biology-biotechnology-and-its-applications\/\">Biotechnology and its Applications<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/mycbseguide.com\/blog\/class-12-biology-organisms-and-populations-important-questions\/\">Organisms and Populations<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/mycbseguide.com\/blog\/class-12-biology-chapter-14-ecosystem-extra-questions\/\">Ecosystem<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/mycbseguide.com\/blog\/extra-questions-for-class-12-biology-biodiversity-and-conservation\/\">Biodiversity and Conservation<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/mycbseguide.com\/blog\/important-questions-of-class-12-biology-environmental-issues\/\">Environmental Issues<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Extra Questions of Class 12 Biology Molecular Basis of Inheritance. myCBSEguide has just released Chapter Wise Question Answers for class 12 Biology.
