Q164

The F2 ratio in polymeric gene action is

A.
9 : 3 : 4
B.
12 : 3 : 1
C.
9 : 4 : 2
D.
9 : 6 : 1
Answer

Answer: Option D

Solution

Answer: Option D
Solution:
The F2 ratio in polymeric gene action is 9 : 6 : 1.
Polymeric gene carriers are a potential alternative to using viral vectors. Polymeric carriers have relatively low immunogenicity and cytotoxicity.
In addition, polymeric carriers can accommodate large-size DNA, be conjugated with appropriate functionalities, and be administered repeatedly. The F2 ratio in polymeric gene action is 9 : 6 : 1.
