The correct Answer is:
To solve the question regarding the expressions related to pBR322 and Eco RI, we need to analyze the provided statements one by one and determine which one is correct. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding pBR322**: - pBR322 is a plasmid, which is a small, circular piece of DNA found in bacteria. It is not a polymer of amino acids; rather, it is made up of nucleic acids (DNA). 2. **Understanding Eco RI**: - Eco RI is a restriction enzyme that cuts DNA at specific sequences. It is not a plasmid but an enzyme that facilitates the manipulation of DNA. 3. **Evaluating the Statements**: - **Statement 1**: "PBR322 is a polymer of amino acids." - This is incorrect because pBR322 is a plasmid (DNA), not a protein (which is made of amino acids). - **Statement 2**: "Both are redesigned plasmids." - This is incorrect because only pBR322 is a plasmid; Eco RI is not a plasmid. - **Statement 3**: "PBR322 is a linear DNA." - This is incorrect because pBR322 is circular DNA, not linear. - **Statement 4**: "Both are organic molecules with ester bonds." - This statement is correct. Both pBR322 (as a nucleic acid) and Eco RI (as a protein) are organic molecules, and they contain ester bonds (the bonds in nucleic acids and the bonds in proteins). 4. **Conclusion**: - The correct expression regarding pBR322 and Eco RI is the fourth statement: "Both are organic molecules with ester bonds." ### Final Answer: The correct expression regarding pBR322 and Eco RI is: **"Both are organic molecules with ester bonds."**
