Options
- A(A)-(IV), (B)-(III), (C)-(II), (D)-(I)
- B(A)-(III), (B)-(IV), (C)-(I), (D)-(II)
- C(A)-(IV), (B)-(III), (C)-(I), (D)-(II)
- D(A)-(III), (B)-(IV), (C)-(II), (D)-(I)
Correct answer
A. (A)-(IV), (B)-(III), (C)-(II), (D)-(I)
Step-by-step solution
Bacteriophages have very high copy numbers of their genome within bacterial cells. pBR322 is an extensively used artificial plasmid vector. The Ti plasmid of Agrobacterium tumefaciens is a pathogen of several dicot plants, which is modified into a cloning vector to deliver genes of interest into plants. Retroviruses are used to deliver desirable genes into animal cells after being disarmed. Thus, the correct matching is (A)-(IV), (B)-(III), (C)-(II), (D)-(I). Answer: (A)-(IV), (B)-(III), (C)-(II), (D)-(I)
