Given table gives an account of differences between PCR and gene cloning. Which of the following points shows the incorrect difference ?
`{:("Parameter",PCR,"Gene cloning"),(1."Efficient","More","Less"),(2."Apparatus Requirement",DNA,"Restriction enzyme, ligase, vector, bacterial cell"),(3."Manipulation","in vitro","in vitro and in vivo"),(4."Cost","More","Less"),(5."Automation","Yes",No),(6."Error probability","Less","More"),(7."Time for a typical experiment","2-4days",4hours),(8."Application","More","Less"):}`

A

1 and 3

B

4,5 and 6

C

4 and 7

D

4,7 and 8

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
The cost of gene cloning is far more than PCR because gene cloning requires many intricate steps. PCR takes less than 4 hours while gene cloning can take days.

Statement : The cost of manufacturing cars in state A is 30 percent less than the cost of manufacturing cars in state B. After transportation fee for the differential distances of stats A and B and the interstate taxes, it is cheaper to manufacture cars in state B than A for selling these cars in state C. Which of the following supports the conclusion drawn in the above statement? 1) The cost of transportation from state A to state C is more than 30 percent of the production cost. 2) The production cost of cars in state B is lower in comparison to state A. 3) Only entry tax at state C is more for the products originating in state A. 4) Entry tax at state C is more for the products originating in state B. 5) The total of transportation cost of cars from state B to state C and entry tax of cars at state C is less than 30 percent of the production cost cars in state B.

Stabilities of alkanes can be compared by converting these compounds to a common product and comparing the amount of the heat given off. One possiblitiy would be to measure the heat of combustion from converting alkenes to xo_(2) and H_(2)O . The heats of combustion are of large values and measuring small difference in these large numbers is difficult. Alkene of the lowest heat of combustion among isomeric alkenes is of the lowest energy and is most stable. Th stability of alkenes is often compared by meansuring the ehat of hydrogenation 9 heat given off, Delta H_(h)^(@) during catalytic hydrogenation. The heat of hydrogenation is in smal number, which provides more accurate energy difference. For a compound containing more than one double bond, Delta_(h)^(@) is the sum of heat of hydrogenation of individual double bonds. For non - conjugated diens, this additive relatioship is found to hold. For conjugated dienes, however, the measured value is slightly lower than expected. Cumulated dienes, which are even less stable than non - conjugated dienes. The more stable is the alkene, lower is the heat of combustion and heat of hydrogenation. More highly substituted double bonds are usually more stable. In case of cyclokanes, compounds having higher angle strin are less stable. If the heat of hydrogenation of cyclooctene is about 23 k cal mo^(-1) , what would be the probable DeltaH_(b) or 1,3,5,7- cyclooctatetraene ?
