Matching Scientists with Biological Discoveries

This section provides a clear matching of scientists from List-I with their significant discoveries in List-II, focusing on key contributions in genetics and molecular biology.

Key Scientists and Discoveries Explained

List-I Scientist List-II Discovery Details
A. Yule II. Multiple factor hypothesis G. Udny Yule proposed the concept that traits can be influenced by multiple genetic factors (polygenic inheritance).
B. Watson & Crick III. Double helical structure of DNA James Watson and Francis Crick determined and published the double helix model of DNA structure in 1953.
C. Jacob & Monod IV. Operon concept François Jacob and Jacques Monod described the operon model, explaining gene regulation in prokaryotes.
D. Fleming I. Mitosis Walther Flemming extensively studied cell division and described the process of mitosis and chromosome behavior.

Deriving the Correct Matching

Based on the established scientific contributions:

  • A. Yule corresponds to II. Multiple factor hypothesis.
  • B. Watson & Crick correspond to III. Double helical structure of DNA.
  • C. Jacob & Monod correspond to IV. Operon concept.
  • D. Fleming corresponds to I. Mitosis.

Therefore, the correct sequence is A-II, B-III, C-IV, D-I.
