It is useful to use restriction enzymes in rDNA experiments that produce sticky ends in the resultant fragments because:
1. | it allows a cell to recognize fragments produced by the enzyme |
2. | the single-stranded ends serve as starting points for DNA replication |
3. | the fragments will bond to other fragments with complementary single-stranded ends |
4. | only single-stranded DNA segments can code for proteins |

Restriction enzymes do not act on the DNA of the host cell in which they are produced, because :
1. | Host DNA is packed into chromosomes |
2. | Restriction enzymes are ineffective on host DNA |
3. | Host DNA does not have the restriction site for the restriction enzymes. |
4. | Restriction site of host DNA is methylated. |

Look at the given hypothetical vector-
Suppose we cut the desired gene as well as the plasmid with the help of the Restriction enzyme EcoR I and ligate them. What would be true?
1. | Kanamycin resistance will select the transformants from non-transformants while tetracycline resistance will select recombinant transformants from non-recombinant transformants. |
2. | Tetracyclin resistance will select the transformants from non-transformants while kanamycin resistance will select recombinant transformants from non-recombinant transformants. |
3. | Both will select only transformants. |
4. | Both will select only recombinants. |

A piece of DNA is inserted within the gene of beta-galactosidase in the E.coli plasmid. X-gal is added to the medium during screening. The colonies of recombinant transformants:
1. | will show an increase in growth |
2. | will not be able to survive |
3. | will give a deep blue color |
4. | will not produce any color |
