Question

Match the following.

\[ \begin{array}{|c|l|c|l|} \hline & \textbf{List-I} & & \textbf{List-II} \\ \hline A & \text{RAPD} & I & \text{Plant Gene Transfer} \\ B & \text{RFLP} & II & \text{Specific Base Change} \\ C & \text{Site-directed Mutagenesis} & III & \text{Restriction-based Polymorphism} \\ D & \text{Agrobacterium-mediated Transformation} & IV & \text{Random PCR Markers} \\ \hline \end{array} \]

The correct matching is

• A. A -- IV, B -- II, C -- III, D -- I
• B. A -- II, B -- I, C -- IV, D -- III
• C. A -- III, B -- IV, C -- I, D -- II
• D. A -- IV, B -- III, C -- II, D -- I

Hint:

Remember: \[ \boxed{ \begin{aligned} \text{RAPD} &\rightarrow \text{Random PCR marker} \text{RFLP} &\rightarrow \text{Restriction polymorphism} \text{Site-directed mutagenesis} &\rightarrow \text{Specific mutation} \text{Agrobacterium} &\rightarrow \text{Plant transformation} \end{aligned} } \]

Answer 1

The Correct Option is D

Step 1: Recall the applications of each technique. \[ \boxed{ \begin{aligned} \text{RAPD} &\rightarrow \text{Random PCR markers} \text{RFLP} &\rightarrow \text{Restriction-based polymorphism} \text{Site-directed mutagenesis} &\rightarrow \text{Specific base change} \text{Agrobacterium-mediated transformation} &\rightarrow \text{Plant gene transfer} \end{aligned} } \]

Step 2: Match List-I with List-II. Thus, \[ \boxed{ A-\mathrm{IV},\; B-\mathrm{III},\; C-\mathrm{II},\; D-\mathrm{I} } \] Therefore, \[ \boxed{(D)} \] is the correct answer.
