D. of partial double bond character between carbon and halogen.
Choose the correct answer from the options given below:
- A A and D only
- B B and C only
- C A and C only
- D B and D only
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(A) A and D only
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Aryl halides do not undergo nucleophilic substitution reactions under ordinary conditions due to: A. approach of nucleophile is retarded (due to repulsion from the electron-rich benzene ring). D. of partial double bond character between carbon and halogen (due to resonance). A…

- There are two kinds of nucleases - exonucleases and endonucleases. Exonucleases remove nucleotides from the ends of the DNA whereas, endonucleases make cuts at specific positions within the DNA. The cutting of DNA by restriction endonucleases results in the fragments of DNA. These fragments can be separated by a technique known as gel electrophoresis. Since DNA fragments are negatively charged molecules they can be separated by forcing them to move towards the anode under an electric field through a medium/matrix. Small volume cultures cannot yield appreciable quantities of products. To produce in large quantities, the development of bioreactors, where large volumes (100 - 1000 litres) of culture can be processed, was required. Thus, bioreactors can be thought of as vessels in which raw materials are biologically converted into specific products, individual enzymes, etc., using microbial plant, animal or human cells. PCR stands for Polymerase Chain Reaction. In this reaction, multiple copies of the gene (or DNA) of interest are synthesised in vitro using two sets of primers (small chemically synthesised oligonucleotides that are complementary to the regions of DNA) and the enzyme DNA polymerase.

- Read the following paragraph and answer the given questions.
Bio-fertilisers are organisms that enrich the nutrient quality of the soil like cyanobacteria, while there are organisms that help to control plant diseases and pests. The very familiar beetle, the ladybird and dragonflies are useful to get rid of aphids and mosquitoes, respectively. An example of microbial biocontrol agents that can be introduced to control butterfly caterpillars is certain bacteria, which are available in sachets in the form of dry spores. These spores are mixed with water and sprayed onto vulnerable plants. Trichoderma species that are very common in the root ecosystem, are very effective biocontrol agents of several plant pathogens.Baculoviruses attack insects and other arthropods. Usage of these viruses is desirable when an ecological sensitive area is being treated.
