Distinguish between structural gene, regulatory gene and operator gene.

Answer»

Structure of the operon: Each operon is a unit of gene expression and regulation and consists of one or more structural genes and an adjacent operator gene that controls transcriptional activity of the structural gene.

  • The structural gene codes for proteins, rRNA and tRNA required by the cell.
  • Promoters are the signal sequences in DNA that initiate RNA synthesis. RNA polymerase binds to the promoter prior to the initiation of transcription.
  • The operators are present between the promoters and structural genes. The repressor protein binds to the operator region of the operon.

Explain the principles of Lamarckian theory.

Answer»
  • The theory of use and disuse – Organs that are used often will increase in size and those that are not used will degenerate. Neck in giraffe is an example of use and absence of limbs in snakes is an example for disuse theory.
  • The theory of inheritance of acquired characters – Characters that are developed during the life time of an organism are called acquired characters and these are then inherited.

Which of the following is functionally the odd one out?(a) siRNA(b) miRNA(c) shRNA(d) snRNA

Answer» Correct option is (d) snRNA

Easy explanation: micro RNA  (miRNA) is a small non-coding RNA that helps in gene silencing. Small interfering RNA (siRNA) helps in gene silencing through the RNA interference pathway. Short hairpin RNA (shRNA) silences target gene via RNA interference. However, small nuclear RNA or snRNA helps in RNA splicing and processing.

Which of the following statement(s) is (are) correct ?A. The electron affinity for sulphur is more exothermic than that for oxygenB. successive ionization energies of an atom always increaseC. First ionization energy of As is greater than that of SeD. Chlorine has larger atomic size as well as electron affinity than that of fluorine

Answer» Correct Answer - A,B,C,D
(A)Oxygen atom is smaller as compared to sulphur, so in oxygen there is more inter-electronic repulsion than that of sulphur.
(B)Charge increases so size decrease and number of electrons per proton also decreases, so valence shell electron gradually becomes more tightly held by the nucleus.
(C )valence shell electron configuration of As is `ns^2 np^2` (half filled stable configuration) and valence shell electron configuration of Se is `ns^2 np^4` (partially filled less stable configuration)
As=0.947 Mj/mole, Se=0.941 Mj/mole.
(D)Down the group atomic size increases. Fluorine experiences more inter electronic repulsion than that of chlorine, so fluorine has less electron affinity than that of chlorin.

Find the angle between Tangents \( T_{1}=2 i+2 j-3 k \) and \( T_{2}=-2 i+2 j-3 k \)

Answer»

 \(\vec T_1 = 2\hat i + 2\hat j - 3\hat k\)

\(\vec T_2 = -2\hat i + 2\hat j - 3\hat k\)

\(|\vec T_1|=\sqrt{2^2+2^2+(-3)^2}\) = \(\sqrt{4+4+9}=\sqrt{17}\)

\(|\vec T_2|=\sqrt{-2^2+2^2+(-3)^2}\) = \(\sqrt{4+4+9}=\sqrt{17}\)

Let angle between T1 and T2 is θ.

\(\therefore\) θ = \(\frac{\vec T_1.\vec T_2}{|\vec T_1||\vec T_2|}\) = \(\frac{(2\hat i+2\hat j-3\hat k).(-2\hat i+2\hat j-3\hat k)}{\sqrt{17}{\sqrt{17}}}\)

\(=\theta = cos^{-1}\frac1{17}\)

Hence, angle between both tangents is cos-1\(\frac9{17}\).

A magnetic compass needle is placed in the plane of paper near point A as shown in Figure 13.6. In which plane should a straight current carrying conductor be placed so that it passes through A and there is no change in the deflection of the compass? Under what condition is the deflection maximum and why?

Answer» In the plane of the paper itself. The axis of the compass is vertical and the field due to the conductor is also vertical. It could result in a dip of compass needle which is not possible in this case (dips result only if axis of compass is horizontal). The deflection is maximum when the conductor through A is perpendicular to the plane of paper and the field due to it is maximum in the plane of the paper.
26872.

Find the domain and range of f(x) = \(\sqrt{16-x}\).

Answer»

if you mean f(x)=  16√-x    then, as the root is an even integer, the unknown under the root must take a negative value to reverse the negative sign of (-x) into a positive value. SO the domain will take the non-positive portion of the x-axis -> (-∞,0]

the range will be [0,∞)    the non-negative portion of the y-axis

hope that helps 

f(x) = \(\sqrt{16-x}\) 

\(\because\) Domain of square root function \(\sqrt{g(x)}\) is g(x) \(\geq 0\).

\(\therefore\) For Domain of given function f(x)

96 - x \(\geq 0\)

⇒ x \(\leq\) 16

⇒ x \(\in\) (-\(\infty\), 16].

Path traced by a moving particle in space is called trajectory of the particle. Shape of trajectiry is decided by the forces acting on the particle. When a coordinate system is associated with a particle motion, the curve equation in which the particle moves `[y=f(x)]` is called equation of trajectory. It is just giving us the relation among x and y coordinates of the particle i.e. the locus of particle.
