In bacteria,$DNA$ replication occurs in .........
A
During $S$-phase
B
Inside the nucleolus
C
Before cell division
D
Before transcription

Solution

(C) In bacteria (prokaryotes),$DNA$ replication is a continuous process that occurs in the cytoplasm. Unlike eukaryotes,bacteria do not have a distinct $S$-phase in their cell cycle. $DNA$ replication must be completed before the cell undergoes binary fission to ensure that each daughter cell receives a complete copy of the genome. Therefore,$DNA$ replication occurs before cell division.

Identify the mismatched pair.
A
$Frankia - Alnus$
B
$Rhodospirillum - Mycorrhiza$
C
$Anabaena - Nitrogen fixer$
D
$Rhizobium - Alfalfa$

Solution

(B) $Frankia$ is a symbiotic nitrogen-fixing bacterium associated with the root nodules of non-leguminous plants like $Alnus$.
$Rhodospirillum$ is a free-living,anaerobic,nitrogen-fixing bacterium,whereas $Mycorrhiza$ is a symbiotic association between a fungus and the roots of higher plants. Thus,$Rhodospirillum - Mycorrhiza$ is a mismatched pair.
$Anabaena$ is a cyanobacterium known for nitrogen fixation.
$Rhizobium$ is a symbiotic nitrogen-fixing bacterium found in the root nodules of leguminous plants like $Alfalfa$.
