GG ATCC

ANSWER :a
4836.

Question : The recognition sequencesof restriction enzyme 'A' is GGCC and that of 'B' is GAATTC. Which statement among the following is true regarding the probable frequency of cutting sides in a genome.

Answer»

Both A and B cut EQUALLY frequently
A cuts once every 676 nucleotides and B 1024 nucleotides
A cuts once every 256 nucleotides and 4096 nucleotides
A cuts once every 256 nucleotides and B 1024 nucleotides

Solution :There are four nucleotides, i.e. A, T, G and C. In case of A enzyme, it is four nucleotides sequences cutter. Therefore, the probable FREQUENCY of fragments produced by A is `4^(4) = 256` Nucleotides. Similarly, with B enzyme, the NUMBER of nucleotides. Similarly by it is `4^(6) = 1024` nucleotides.
THus, A cut (s) at every 256 nucleotides and B produces cut at 1024 nucleotides in sequences.

Question : The reactions of photosynthesis make up a biochemical pathway. Explain how the biochemical pathway of photosynthesis recycles many of its own reactions and identify the recycled reactants.

Answer»

Solution :The ATP and `NADPH_2` are generated during light reaction of photosynthesis.
(i) They help in reduction of CARBON dioxide to carbohydrates and during the process they are converted to ADP and NADP.
(ii) They are sent back to the GRANA of chloroplast to form ATP and `NADPH_2`.
(iii) Similarly the `CO_2` from the atmosphere is said to be fixed by a `CO_2` acceptor molecule.
(IV) During successive reactions the carbon of `CO_2` is used for formation of glucose and the original acceptor molecule is recycled so that it can again help in `CO_2` fixation.
(v) WATER is split during light reaction and oxygen is produced as a by-product.
(VI) At the same time water is again released as a by-product of dark reaction.
(vii) Thus many molecules such as ATP, `NADPH_2`, water, `CO_2` acceptor molecules are recycled during the biochemical pathway of photosynthesis.
