  1. Match the following genetic elements with their functions. ​​
    Genetic​ ​​elements Functions
    A.​ neoR 1. ​Facilitates inducible expression of genes in eukaryotes
    B.​ SV40 ​ 2. ​Facilitates constitutive expression of genes in eukaryotes ​​
    ​C.​ LTR​ 3.​ Allows amplification of gene ​​
    D.​ dhfr​ 4.​ Provides way of selecting eukaryotic cells, which have received foreign DNA

    1. ​A → 4, B → 2, C → 1, D → 3
    2. A → 2, B → 4, C → 1, D → 3
    3. A → 1, B → 4, C → 2, D → 3 ​​
    4. A → 4, B → 2, C → 3, D → 1
Correct Option: A

neoR stands for the eukaryotic gene expression marker, SV40 facilitate gene expression in eukaryotes, LTR induces new gene expression and dhfr is a gene amplification factor.
