Match List -I with List -II.
| List -I | List -II |
| (A) Ribosome | (I) Replication |
| (B) Histone | (II) Transcription |
| (C) DNA polymerase | (III) Translation |
| (D) RNA polymerase | (IV) Nucleosome |
Choose the correct answer from the options given below:
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 4
The correct answer is Option (4) -(A)-(III), (B)-(IV), (C)-(I), (D)-(II)
| List -I | List -II |
| (A) Ribosome | (III) Translation |
| (B) Histone | (IV) Nucleosome |
| (C) DNA polymerase | (I) Replication |
| (D) RNA polymerase | (II) Transcription |
Here's an explanation of the matching between List I and List II:
(A) Ribosome - (III) Translation
- Ribosomes are cellular structures responsible for protein synthesis or translation. They read the mRNA (messenger RNA) sequence and link together amino acids to form a protein chain.
(B) Histone - (IV) Nucleosome
- Histones are proteins found in the cell nucleus that help package and condense DNA into a dense structure known as chromatin. Nucleosomes are the basic unit of this packaging, consisting of DNA wrapped around histone proteins.
(C) DNA polymerase - (I) Replication
- DNA polymerase is an enzyme involved in DNA replication. It catalyzes the synthesis of a new DNA strand by adding complementary nucleotides to a template DNA strand during cell division.
(D) RNA polymerase - (II) Transcription
- RNA polymerase is an enzyme responsible for transcription, the process of synthesizing an RNA molecule from a DNA template.
These associations reflect the roles and functions of these biological components in various cellular processes related to genetic information and protein synthesis.
