Definitions/Explanation : Replication fork & Transcription
For long $DNA$ molecules, since the two strands of $DNA$ cannot be separated in its entire length the replication occur within a small opening of the $DNA$ helix referred to as replication fork.
$=$ The process of copying genetic information from one strand of the $DNA$ into $RNA$ is termed a transcription.
After a mutation at a genetic locus the character of an organism changes due to the change in
Differentiate between the followings:
$(a)$ Repetitive $DNA$ and Satellite $DNA$
$(b)$ $mRNA$ and $tRNA$
$(c)$ Template strand and Coding strand
Match List $I$ with List $II$:Choose the correct answer from the options given below :
List $I$ | List $II$ |
$A$ $RNA$ polymerase $III$ | $I$ snRNPs |
$B$ hline Termination of transcription | $II$ Promotor |
$C$ Splicing of Exons | $III$ Rho factor |
$D$ $TATA$ box | $IV$ SnRNAs, tRNA |
Identify the correct order of organisation ofgenetic material from largest to smallest.
Assertion : Replication and transcription occur in the nucleus but translation in the cytoplasm.
Reason : $m-RNA$ is transferred from the nucleus into the cytoplasm where ribosomes and amino acids are available for protein synthesis.
