Given below are four statements pertaining to separa- tion of DNA fragments using gel electrophoresis. Iden- tify the incorrect statements. (a) DNA is negatively charged molecule and so it is loaded on gel towards the Anode terminal (b) DNA fragments travel along the surface of the gel whose concentration does not affect movement of DNA. (c) Smaller the size of DNA fragment larger is the dis- tance it travels through it. (d) Pure DNA can be visualized directly by exposing UV radiation. Choose correct answer from the options given below

Study the given figure carefully and select the incorrect statements regarding this. (i) It represents a typical agarose gel electrophoresis in which lane 1 contains undigested DNA (ii) Smallest DNA bands are formed at A and largest DNA bands are formed at B (iii) The separated DNA fragments can be visualized after staining in the visible light (iv) The separated DNA bands are cut out from the agarose gel and extracted from the gel piece. this step is known as elution.

Which of the following statements are correct ? (i) Restriction enzymes cut the strand of DNA a little away from the centre of the palindrome site, but between the same two bases on the opposite strands.

(iii) Separated DNA fragments cannot be visualised without staining on an agarose gel electrophoresis. (iv) 'Ori' is the sequence responsible for controlling the copy number. (v) DNA is a positively charged molecule.

Two charges q_(1) = 3.0 mu C and q_(2) = - 4.0 mu C initiallly are separated by a distance r_(0) = 2.0 cm . An external agent moves the charges until they are r_(f) = 5.0 cm apart. (i) How much work is done by the electric field in moving the charges from r_(0) to r_(f) ? Is the work positive or negative ? (ii) How much work is donw by the external aganet in moving the charges from r_(0) to r_(f) ? Is the work positive or negative ? (iii) What is the positive energy of the initial state where the charge are r_(0) =2.0 cm apart ? (iv) What is the potential energy of the final state where the charges are r_(f)= 5.0cm apart ? (v) What is the change in potential energy from the initial state to the final state ?
