RE-NEET 2026 Zoology DNA Manipulation Match the Following Question

Type: Match the Following-conceptual-Hard-Class 12

Match List-I with List-II.

List-IList-II
(A) Transformation(I) Restriction enzyme
(B) Cloning site(II) Transfer DNA to host bacteria
(C) Selection(III) Replication
(D) Ori(IV) Antibiotic
A

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

B

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

C

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

D

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

Correct Answer

Option D

Detailed Explanation

The correct answer is D, which matches each term in List-I with its appropriate definition in List-II.

  • Transformation (A-II) refers to the process of transferring DNA into host bacteria.
  • Cloning site (B-I) is where a restriction enzyme cuts DNA, allowing for the insertion of foreign DNA.
  • Selection (C-IV) involves using antibiotics to select for bacteria that have successfully taken up the plasmid.
  • Ori (D-III) stands for the origin of replication, which is necessary for the replication of the plasmid within the host.

Other options fail because they misalign the terms with their definitions, such as incorrectly associating transformation with replication or selection with the cloning site.
