    Direction: Each of these questions contains two statements
    Assertion [A] and Reason [R]. Each of these questions also has four alternative choices, any one of which is the correct answer. You have to select one of the codes [a], [b], [c] and [d] given below.
    Assertion [A] DNA acts as a genetic material in all organisms.
    Reason [R] It is a double-stranded biomolecule in most organisms.

    A) Both A and Rare true and R is the correct explanation of A

    B) Both A and R are true, but R is not the correct explanation of A

    C) A is true, but R is false

    D) A is false, but R is true

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    [d] A is false, but R is true. A can be corrected as DNA serves as the genetic material in most organisms, but in some viruses like TMV, RNA acts as the genetic material. DNA is a double-stranded biomolecule, but can also exist as a single-stranded biomolecule.
