Read the following and answer any four questions from $(i)$ to $(v)$ given below:
Plants having foreign genes in their genome through genetic engineering are called transgenic plants. Genes can be incorporated either through a vector or through direct introduction of $\text{DNA. Bt}$ cotton is a genetically modified organism which is pest resistant. It contain gene cry $\text{I Ac}$ and cry $\text{II Ab}$ of Bacillus thuringiensis. It is used to control lepidopterans, coleopterans and dipterans. $\text{Bt}$ cotton can resist cotton bollworm and produce higher yields. Cry gene produces cry protein or $\text{Bt}$ toxin. It is an endotoxin which remains as protoxin in plants and converted to active toxin after getting ingested by the insects. Alkaline $pH$ of the insect gut solubilises the protein crystals, the activated toxin creates pores to the mid guts wall of the insects which cause them to death.
  1. Bt cotton crops are:
  1. Fungal resistant.
  2. Insect resistant.
  3. Drought resistant.
  4. All of these.
  1. Cotton bollwonns are killed by the protein encoded by the gene:
  1. $\text{cry I Ac}$
  2. $\text{cry I Ab}$
  3. $\text{cry I Ab}$
  4. Both $(a)$ and $(c).$
  1. Which of the following is not an advantage of $\text{GM}$ crops?
  1. $\text{GM}$ plants enhance nutritional value of food.
  2. $\text{GM}$ plants are more tolerant to abiotic stresses.
  3. $\text{GM}$ plants have helped to reduce post harvest losses.
  4. $\text{GM}$ plants can cause gene transfer to non$-$target plant species.
  1. Bacillus thuringiensis is a:
  1. Air borne bacteria.
  2. Soil borne bacteria.
  3. Soil borne fungus.
  4. Food borne bacteria.
  1. Assertion: Cotton bollworms are killed by ingesting the leaves of the transgenic plant.
Reason: Bt toxin binds with the midgut wall of the insect and make pores in them.
  1. Both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of assertion.
  2. Both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion.
  3. Assertion is true but reason is false.
  4. Both assertion and reason are false.

Read the following and answer any four questions from $(i)$ to $(v)$ given below:
Transgenic animals can serve as factories that in some cases, may produce large amount of proteins more efficiently. Transgenic mice have been engineered to express human antibodies by introducing large segment of human $\text{DNA}$ encoding human immunoglobulin genes. In transgenic large animals such as cow or sheep proteins of pharmaceutical value can be produced in large quantities in milk which is later purified. Transgenesis can be used to alter many phenotypic properties including growth rate, fat composition, milk production, hair texture, etc.
  1. The production of transgenic animals includes
  1. Identification and separation of desired gene.
  2. Combining the desired gene with appropriate vector.
  3. Introduction of vector in cells, tissues or embryos.
  4. All of these.
  1. In transgenic animals, i.e., cow and sheep proteins of pharmaceutical value are produced in large quantities in the
  1. Blood.
  2. Accumulated fat.
  3. Mammary glands.
  4. None of these.
  1. Mouse is mostly preferred animal for studies on gene transfer because.
  1. Short oestrous cycle.
  2. Long gestation period.
  3. Short generation time.
  4. Production of one or two offspring per pregnancy.
  1. Both $(A)$ and $(C)$
  2. Both $(A)$ and $(B)$
  3. Only $D$
  4. Both $(C)$ and $(D).$
  1. Transgenic genes alter many phenotypic properties including:
  1. Growth rate.
  2. Fat composition.
  3. Milk production.
  4. All of these.
  1. Assertion: Transgenic mice have been engineered to express human antibodies.
Reason: Large segment of human $\text{DNA}$ encoding human immunoglobulin have been transferred to mice.
  1. Both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of assertion.
  2. Both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion.
  3. Assertion is true but reason is false.
  4. Both assertion and reason are false.
