There are certain complexities in eukaryotic transcription.Bring out the significance of such complexities.

An mRNA strand has a series of codons out of which three are given below:
(i) AUG
(ii) UUU
(iii) UAG
(a) What will these RNA codons be translated into?
(b) What are the DNA codons that would have transcribed these RNA codons?

Given below is a schematic representation of a lac operon:

(a) Identify i and p.
(b) Name the 'inducer' for this operon and explain its role.

What is genetic code?Name the scientists and their contribution in deciphering the genetic code

What is semiconservative replication of DNA? Explain how it was experimentally proved.

(i)  Explain the process of DNA replication with the help of a schematic diagram.
(ii) In which phase of the cell cycle does replication occur in eukaryotes? What would happen if cell division is not followed after DNA replication?
