Step 1

  • Gene is the small fragment of DNA.
  • DNA is the small segment of chromosome.
  • Chromosome is situated inside the nucleus of the cell, which have information that specifies the characteristics of an organism
  • DNA is also known as the genetic material having heredity information, which inherit from one generation to the next generation.

Step 2

<u>Statement</u><u> </u><u>1</u><u>st</u>

<em>Incorrect</em>

  • (Gene is the unit of DNA)

<u>Statement</u><u> </u><u>2</u><u>nd</u>: <em>Incorrect</em><em> </em>

  • <em>(</em><em> </em><em>chromosome</em><em> </em><em>is</em><em> </em><em>made</em><em> </em><em>up</em><em> </em><em>of</em><em> </em><em>a</em><em> </em><em>bunch</em><em> </em><em>of</em><em> </em><em>DNA</em><em>,</em><em> </em><em>and</em><em> </em><em>the</em><em> </em><em>DNA</em><em> </em><em>having</em><em> </em><em>a</em><em> </em><em>lot</em><em> </em><em>of</em><em> </em><em>Gene</em><em>)</em>

<em>Correct</em>

  • <em>(</em><em> </em><em>Yes</em><em> </em><em>a</em><em> </em><em>gene</em><em> </em><em>is</em><em> </em><em>located</em><em> </em><em>on</em><em> </em><em>chromosome</em><em>)</em>

<u>Statement</u><u> </u><u>4</u><u>th</u>: <em>Incorrect</em><em> </em>

UNO [17]

In SN1 reaction, the products will be formed as a racemic mixture.

<h3>What is racemic mixture?</h3>

Racemic mixture also called racemate, a mixture of equal quantities of two enantiomers, or substances that have dissymmetric molecular structures that are mirror images of one another.

<h3>What is SN1 reaction?</h3>

SN1 reaction corresponds to unimolecular nucleophilic substitution reaction. The order of reaction is one. The hydrolysis of tert-butyl bromide with aqueous NaOH solution is an example of SN1 reaction.

<h3>Why in SN1 reaction products will be formed as a racemic mixture?</h3>

The carbocation and its substituents are all in the same plane, meaning that the nucleophile can attack from either side. As a result, both enantiomers are formed in an the SN1 reaction, leading to a racemic mixture of both enantiomers.
