Abacterium is infected with an experimentally constructed bacteriophage composed of the t2 phage protein coat and t4 phage dna. the new phages produced would have
a. t2 protein and t4 dna.
b. t2 protein and t2 dna.
c. t4 protein and t4 dna.
d. t4 protein and t2 dna.

Option (a).

Explanation:

Virus are the acellular organism and can only acts as living organism when present inside the host organism. Virus can have DNA or RNA as their genetic material.

The bacteria is infected with T2 phage protein coat and T4 phage DNA. As only DNA can acts as the genetic material and can be inherited to the next generation. The new phages has the T4 DNA as their genetic material and T2 phage protein coat.

Thus, the correct answer is option (a).

the answer would be   10%
