Determine the correctness or otherwise of the following Assertion (a) and the Reason (r): Assertion: The elucidation of ribosome structure helps in the development of new generation drugs. Reason: The high resolution of macromolecular structure has enabled in structure-based drug design. Options: (A) both (a) and (r) are true and (r) is the correct reason for (a) (B) both (a) and (r) are true but (r) is not the correct reason for (a) (C) (a) is true but (r) is false (D) (a) is false but (r) is true
Determine the correctness or otherwise of the following Assertion (a) and the Reason (r):
Assertion: The elucidation of ribosome structure helps in the development of new generation drugs.
Reason: The high resolution of macromolecular structure has enabled in structure-based drug design.
Options:
(A) both (a) and (r) are true and (r) is the correct reason for (a)
(B) both (a) and (r) are true but (r) is not the correct reason for (a)
(C) (a) is true but (r) is false
(D) (a) is false but (r) is true
Answer
Answer: (A) both (a) and (r) are true and (r) is the correct reason for (a)
Explanation: The elucidation of ribosome structure has indeed facilitated the development of new drugs, and the high resolution of macromolecular structures has enabled structure-based drug design.
