Crossing over is a genetic process during meiosis where homologous chromosomes exchange segments of DNA. This exchange results in genetic variation among offspring by creating new combinations of genes, enhancing diversity, and contributing to evolution’s mechanism. This is an MCQ on Linkage and Crossing Over – Mechanism and its Significance […]

MCQ on RIA (Radioimmunoassay)
Radioimmunoassay (RIA) is a sensitive laboratory technique that uses radioactive isotopes to measure the concentration of specific substances, such as hormones or antigens, in biological samples. It involves competition between labeled and unlabeled molecules for binding to a limited number of specific antibodies. This is an MCQ on RIA (Radioimmunoassay)- […]

Immunofluorescence is a laboratory technique that utilizes fluorescently labeled antibodies to detect and visualize specific proteins or antigens within cells or tissues. When exposed to light of a particular wavelength, the labeled antibodies emit fluorescence, enabling precise localization and identification of target molecules in biological samples. This is an MCQ […]
