Common Data Questions: 51 & 52
Transgenic plants are developed by genetic engineering techniques
51. The method involves
(A) Individual genes from one species inserted into another; the offspring will
contain copies of new gene.
(B) By crossing two species or varieties differing at least in one set of characters
(C) Exposing the plant tissue to radiation
(D) Bioproduction of natural compounds under aseptic conditions
52. In the production of transgenic plants, the gene transfer is carried out by
(A) Induction of meristematic primordial
(B) Gel filtration
(C) Clonal propagation
(D) Silicon carbide whiskers
55. Lyposomes are used as carriers for drugs and macromolecules in pharmaceutical
formulations. They are
(A) Phospholipids dispersed gently in aqueous medium to obtain multilamellar
vesicles
(B) Hydrophilic or lipophilic polymer matrix with a drug reservoir
(C) A shallow compartment moulded from a drug impermeable system and rate
controlling polymeric membrane
(D) Microporous membrane made from ethylene / vinyl acetate polymer
56. They can interact by different mechanisms
(A) Biological fluid diffuses into the matrix and causes erosion of polymer
(B) Endocytosis by phagocytic cells of the reticuloendothelial system such as
macrophages and Neutrophils
(C) Magnetic beads dispersed throughout the polymer matrix. On exposure the
drug is released slowly by diffusion
(D) Receptor binding mediated by the peptide
