Which two of the above statements are correct?
1. B and D
2. C and D
3. A and C
4. A and B
1. Vector
2. Selectable marker
3. Plasmid
4. Probe
Which of the following is not an application of PCR (Polymerase Chain Reaction)?
1. Purification of isolated protein
2. Detection of gene mutation
3. Molecular diagnosis
4. Gene amplification
Nowadays, it is possible to detect the mutated gene causing cancer by allowing the radioactive probe to hybridise its complementary DNA in clone of cells, followed by its detection using autoradiography because:
| 1. | mutated gene does not appear on a photographic film as the probe has no complementarity with it. |
| 2. | mutated gene does not appear on a photographic film as the probe has complementarity with it. |
| 3. | mutated gene partially appears on a photographic film. |
| 4. | mutated gene completely and clearly appears on a photographic film. |
| 1. | Enzyme Linked Immuno-Sorbent Assay (ELISA) technique |
| 2. | Recombinant DNA Technology |
| 3. | Serum and Urine analysis |
| 4. | Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) technique |
Preparing Molecular Diagnosis for NEET
Molecular Diagnosis is a specific sub-topic that frequently appears in the NEET examination. Understanding the underlying principles and practicing targeted questions is key to mastering this concept.
The questions compiled above are previous year questions (PYQs) directly related to Molecular Diagnosis. Practicing these specific questions helps you understand the difficulty level and the examiner's approach to this topic.
Topic Frequently Asked Questions
Is Molecular Diagnosis a high-weightage topic?
You can refer to the priority and consistency badges at the top of this page. High priority topics should be thoroughly revised multiple times before the exam.
Should I memorize the solutions?
No, it is highly recommended to understand the core concept and methodology behind each solution rather than memorizing them, as exact questions are rarely repeated, but the concepts definitely are.
