E. coli about to replicate was placed in a medium containing radioactive thymidine for five minutes. Then it was made to replicate in a normal medium. Which of the following observation shall be correct?
Both the strands of DNA will be radioactive
One strand radioactive
Each strand half radioactive
None is radioactive
Which of the following is related to genetic engineering?

Heterosis
The genotype for one gene affects the expression of another quite separate gene. This situation is called:
Epistasis
Melanin
Albino
All of these
During replication of DNA, its two strands separate. Each of these serves as a template for the formation of new strands. Such type of replication is called:
Non-conservative
Semi-conservative
Flexible
Conservative
Loss of an X-chromosome in a particular cell, during its development, results into
diploid individual
triploid individual
gynandromorphs
both (a) and (b)
The tendency of organisms to resemble their parents in all fundamental features is called:
Heredity
Genotype
Phenotype
Inheritance
