Solution
-
The correct answer is d. Stained with ethidium bromide and exposed to UV radiation. Ethidium bromide is a fluorescent dye that binds to DNA and fluoresces under UV light, making the DNA visible.
-
The correct answer is a. Elution. After gel electrophoresis, the DNA bands are cut out from the agarose gel in a process called elution.
-
The correct answer is c. Cloning vector. A cloning vector is a small piece of DNA, taken from a virus, a plasmid, or the cell of a higher organism, that can be stably maintained in an organism, and into which a foreign DNA fragment can be inserted for cloning purposes.
-
The correct answer is b. Plasmids. Plasmids are autonomously replicating circular extra-chromosomal DNA of bacteria.
-
The correct answer is a. Plasmids. Plasmids have very high copy numbers of their genome.
-
The correct answer is b. Elimination of non-transformants and permitting transformants. The function of a selectable marker is to identify and select cells that have been successfully transformed with the plasmid vector.
-
The correct answer is c. Normal E. coli cells have resistance against ampicillin, chloramphenicol etc. This statement is incorrect. Normal E. coli cells do not have resistance against these antibiotics. The resistance is provided by the plasmid vector.
