    Genes are responsible for the growth and differentiation in an organism through regulation of:

    A)  translocation

    B)  transformation

    C)  transduction and translation

    D)  translation and transcription

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    Genes are responsible for the growth and differentiation in an organism through the regulation of protein synthesis which involves transcription and translation. The process by which the linear sequence of nucleotides in a molecule of m-RNA direct the specific linear sequence of amino acids is called translation. While the formation of m-RNA on D.NA template is called transcription. In bacteria, genetic recombination following the uptake of a DNA molecule by a competent bacterial cell in genetic engineering. introduction of a vector containing the desired gene into a host cell is called transformation. Translocation is the integration of a segment of one chromosome into a non-homologous chromosome. This integration may be reciprocal, i.e., the two non-homologous chromosomes involved in the translocation may exchange segments. Transduction is the genetic recombination in bacteria following the transfer by a virus of a segment of the bacterial chromosomes from one bacterial cell into another.
