A) E.coli
B) \[\phi \] X 174
C) \[\lambda \]
D) \[{{T}_{4}}\]
Correct Answer: B
Solution :
The nucleic acid found in a virus can be UNA or RNA. On the basis of number of strands present the viruses are categorised as- (i) Single stranded DNA-Bacteriophage \[\phi \]X174,coliphage S13, (ii) Double stranded DNA-Adenovirus, coliphage \[{{T}_{2}},{{T}_{4}},{{T}_{6}},{{T}_{7}}\], lambda coliphage (iii) Single stranded RNA-TMV, influenza, (iv) Double stranded RNA-Wound tumour virus, Reovirus etc. The genetic material in E. coli is double stranded circular DNA.You need to login to perform this action.
