Question

B lymphocytes mature in bone marrow, and T lymphocytes mature in: A. Thymus B. Blood C. Bone marrow D. A, B & C Interferon is produced by: A. B lymphocytes B. T lymphocytes C. Macrophages D. Virus infected cells Antisense technology deactivates mRNA by providing: A stands of RNA complementary to mRNA B. Strands of DNA C. Strands of protein D. Both B & C In DNA the areas that do not code for amino acids are know as: A. Genome B. Exons C. Introns D. Phenomes One gene may produce: A. Only 1 protein B. Only 2 proteins C. More than 1 protein D. Protein plus fat

Explanation / Answer

Answers :

Q8.The correct answer is A (Thymus)

Explanation : T lymphocytes also arise in the bone marrow. Unlike B cells, which mature within the bone marrow, T cells migrate to the thymus gland to mature. During its maturation within the thymus, the T cell comes to express a unique antigen-binding molecule, called the T-cell receptor, on its membrane.

Q9. The correct option is D (virus infected cells) : Interferons comprises a group of proteins produced by virus-infected cells. These interferons bind to neraby cells and induce a generalized antiviral state.

Q10.The correct answer is A ( A starnds of RNA complementary to mRNA)

Q11. The right answer is C ( Introns) : Introns are the non coding sequences/intervening sequences that does not specify any gene. These introns are removed from pre-mRNA/ primary transcript in eukaryotes in a process called post transcriptional modifications.
