Question

Match Column I with Column II

Column I Column II
A. Panspermia theory 1. Proteinoids
B. Sidney Fox 2. Processing of 26S rRNA of Tetrahymena
C. Eugenote 3. Precipitated hydrous ferric oxide
D. Transesterification 4. Meteorites
E. Red beds 5. Earliest cell containing a genome

Options

A.A→4; B→1; C→5; D→2; E→3
B.A→3; B→1; C→4; D→2; E→5
C.A→1; B→3; C→4; D→5; E→2
D.A→2; B→1; C→3; D→4; E→5

Solution

Sol.(a) [Key Concept: Origin-of-Life Theories — Matching] Panspermia theory (A) → Meteorites (4) — panspermia proposes life came to Earth via meteorites/comets; Sidney Fox (B) → Proteinoids (1) — Fox synthesised thermal proteinoids (microspheres); Eugenote (C) → Earliest cell containing a genome (5); Transesterification (D) → Processing of 26S rRNA of Tetrahymena (2) — RNA catalysis/ribozymes; Red beds (E) → Precipitated hydrous ferric oxide (3). Correct: A→4, B→1, C→5, D→2, E→3.
