1. In DNA model of Watson and Crick, the major grooves represent one of the following sites.
(A) Binding of histone proteins (B) Binding of acidic proteins
(C) Binding of RNA molecules (D) Binding of glycoproteins
Sol. (B)
Twin helical strands form the DNA backbone. Another double helix maybe found tracing the spaces, or grooves, between
the strands. These voids are adjacent to the base pairs and may provide a binding site. As the strands are not symmetri-
cally located with respect to each other , the grooves are unequally sized.
One groove, the major grooves , is 22 Å wide and the other the minor groove is 12 Å wide. The narrowness of the minor
groove means that the edges of the bases are more accessible in the major groove.
As a result , proteins like transcription factors that can bind to specific sequences in double- situation varies in on usual
conformations of DNA within the cell , but the major and minor grooves are always named to reflect the differences in size
that would be seen if the DNA is twisted back into the ordinary B form

(B) In C3 plants, carbon dioxide, combines with RuBP to form phosphoglyceric acid, On the other hand in C4 – plants,
carbon dioxide is first picked up by phospho and pyruvate to form oxaloacetic acid.
(C) Cytochrome plays very important role in ETS of photosynthesis as well as respiration
(D) Energy is released during photorespiration and ammonia is not released from photoerspiration
Sol. (D)
Photorespiration is a process in plant metabolism which attempts to ameliorate the consequences of a wasteful oxygen-
ation reaction by the enzyme. RuBisCO. During the photorespiratory reactions, energy is not released during photorespi-
