Read the passage carefully and answer the given questions. DNA Fingerprinting
Polymorphism in DNA sequence is the basis of genetic mapping of the human genome as well as of DNA fingerprinting. DNA fingerprinting involves identification of differences in some specific regions in the DNA sequence called repetitive DNA. It works on the principle of polymorphisms in DNA sequences. The repetitive DNA are separated from bulk genomic DNA. The bulk DNA forms a major peak and the other small peaks are referred to as satellite DNA. These repetitive/satellite DNA sequences show a high degree of polymorphisms and form the basis of DNA fingerprinting.
Variable Number of Tandem Repeats are -

Read the following paragraph carefully and answer the given questions.
Certain types of leukocytes (WBC) of our body like polymorpho-nuclear leukocytes (PMNL-neutrophils) and monocytes and natural killer (type of lymphocytes) in the blood as well as macrophages in tissues can phagocytose and destroy microbes. For determining the cause of allergy, the patient is exposed to or injected with very small doses of possible allergens, and the reactions studied. The use of drugs like anti-histamine, adrenalin and steroids quickly reduce the symptoms of allergy. Heroin, commonly called smack is chemically diacetylmorphine which is a white, odourless, bitter crystalline compound. This is obtained by acetylation of morphine. Techniques like radiography (use of X-rays), CT (computed tomography) and MRI (magnetic resonance imaging) are very useful to
detect cancers of the internal organs. Different species of Plasmodium (P. vivax, P. malaria and P. falciparum) are responsible for different types of malaria. Of these, malignant malaria caused by Plasmodium falciparum is the most serious one and can even be fatal.
Which of the following cells are involved in phagocytosis and destruction of microbes?

A student is asked to observe his face in three different types of mirrors P, Q, R one by one by holding each mirror close to his face at same distance. Mirror P given exact and same size image, Q gives exact but smaller while R gives exact but larger image.
A. P is Convex mirror, Q is Plane, R is Concave
B. P is Plane, Q is Convex, R is Concave
C. P is Concave, Q is Plane, R is Convex
D. P is Convex, Q is Concave, R is Plane

In the reaction \(\left( CH _3\right)_3 C - O - CH _3+ HI \rightarrow\) Products, \(CH _3 OH\) and \(\left( CH _3\right)_3 CCl\) are the products and not \(CH _3 I\) and \(\left( CH _3\right)_3 COH\). It is because:
(A) In step 2 of the reaction, the departure of leaving group ( \(HO - CH _3\) ) creates less stable carbocation.
(B) In step 2 of the reaction, the departure of leaving group ( \(HO - CH _3\) ) creates more stable carbocation.
(C) The reaction follows an SN1 mechanism.
(D) The reaction follows SN2 mechanism.
