The offspring produced through which of the following processes are not exactly similar to their parents?

Mutation breeding is a process through which one gene from a parent transfer in to another and produce recombinant similar to parent. Reason : - Somatic hybridization does not induce variation.

Assertion : Individuals produced by asexual reproduction are genetically similar to parents . Reason : Asexual reproduction involves only mitotic divisons.

Assertion: During asexual reproduction, the offspring that are produced are not only identical to one another but also exact copies of their parent. Reason: Morphologically and genetically similar individuals are called clones.

Assertion : Plants produced by micropropagation will be genetically identical to original plants from which they were grown. Reason : Plants produced by micropropagation are called somaclones.

Study the following statements regarding recombinant DNA technology and select the incorrect ones. (i) Taq polymerase extends the primers using the nucleotides provided in the reaction. (ii) Antibiotic resistance genes are considered as desirable genes in recombinant DNA technology. (iii) DNA fragments are separated according to their charge only, in agarose gel electrophoresis. (iv) Transformation is a procedure through which a piece of DNA is integrated in to the genome of a host bacterium. (v) To produce higher yields of a desired protein, host cells can be multiplied in a continuous culture. (vi) Downstream processing is one of the steps of polymerase chain reaction.

Assertion: Genetic engineering is a quick and reliable technique for producing GM plants but is facing resistance from people Reason :It is facing resistance because it contains bacterial genes which may be toxic and causes allergy

Assertion : Geitonogamy is functionally cross-pollination involving pollinating agent and genetically it is similar to autogamy since the pollen grains come from the another plant. Reason : Geitonogamy is the only type of pollination which during pollination brings genetically different types of pollen grains to the stigma.

Assertion : The uptake of DNA during transformation is an acitve, energy requiring process. Reason: Transformation occurs in only those bacteria, which posses the enzymatic machinery involved in the active uptake and recombination.
