Botany · Molecular basis of Inheritance
NEET (UG) 2025 — Question 125
Match List-I with List-II.
| List-I | List-II |
|---|---|
| A. Alfred Hershey and Martha Chase | I. Streptococcus pneumoniae |
| B. Euchromatin | II. Densely packed and dark-stained |
| C. Frederick Griffith | III. Loosely packed and light-stained |
| D. Heterochromatin | IV. DNA as genetic material confirmation |
Choose the correct answer from the options given below:
- Option A:
A-II, B-IV, C-I, D-III
- Option B:
A-IV, B-II, C-I, D-III
- Option C:Correct
A-IV, B-III, C-I, D-II
- Option D:
A-III, B-II, C-IV, D-I
Answer: C
Step-by-step solution
Alfred Hershey and Martha Chase conducted experiments with Streptococcus pneumoniae; Euchromatin is
densely packed; Frederick Griffith worked with loosely packed chromatin; Heterochromatin involves DNA
genetic recombination. The correct matching pairs scientists/structures with their associated research or
characteristics.
