    (d) methionine
  18. In case of lac operon when disaccharide enters the cell:
    (a) it binds to the bound-repressor-to-the-operator and the structural genes are transcribed because the RNA polymerase can recognize and bind the transcription initiation site
    (b) it binds to the repressor and structural genes are transcribed because the repressor has an altered conformation, is inactivated and does not bind the operator.
    (c) the membrane protein interacts with the operator and the RNA polymerase can recognize the transcription initiation site
    (d) the membrane protein has an altered conformation and does not interact with the operator, thus leading to the transcription of the structural genes
  19. Which of the following is a mucopolysaccharide?
    (a) Fibrinogen
    (b) y- globulin
    (c) Chitin
    (d) Hyaluronic acid
  20. AIDS-causing HIV identifies its target cells by recognizing:
    (a) low density lipoproteins in cell membranes
    (b) apoproteins in the coated pits of membranes
    (c) gated channels in the membranes
    (d) carbohydrates of glycocalyx
  21. Genetic recombination takes place during:
    (a) prophase of meiotic division-I
    (b) metaphase of meiotic division-II
    (c) prophase of meiotic division-II
    (d) metaphase of meiotic division-I
  22. Consanguinity shows a strong association with which pattern of inheritance?
  23. a) Autosomal dominant
  24. b) Autosomal recessive
  25. c) X-linked dominant
  26. d) X-linked recessive
