Read the following and answer any four questions from 3(1) to 3(v) given below: DNA replication is a complex multistep process that requires enzymes, protein factors and metal ions. DNA replication in eukaryotes occurs in the nucleus during the S-phase of the cell cycle. It is semi discontinuous in eukaryotes. In prokaryotes, replication takes place in the cytoplasm. DNA replication in bacteria occurs prior to fission. Nucleoid or viral chromosome is a single molecule of nucleic acid, it may be linear or circular. Nucleic acid in a virus is either DNA or RNA but never both.
In viral DNA, how many origins of replication are present?
Read the following and answer any four questions from 2(i) to 2(v) given below: In prokaryotes, DNA is circular and present in the cytoplasm but in eukaryotes, DNA is linear and mainly confined to the nucleus. DNA or deoxyribonucleic acid is a long polymer of nucleotides. In 1953, the first correct double helical structure of DNA was worked out by Watson and Crick. Based on the X-ray diffraction data produced by Maurice Wilkins and Rosalind Franklin. It is composed of three components, i.e., A phosphate group, a deoxyribose sugar and a nitrogenous base. Different forms of DNA are B-DNA, Z-DNA, A-DNA, C-DNA and D-DNA.
