NEET Zoology Genetic Engineering Assertion Reason Question
Assertion (A): Cutting the vector and source DNA with the same restriction enzyme is crucial for creating a recombinant vector.
Reason (R): Restriction endonucleases create DNA fragments that can be separated by gel electrophoresis.
Both A and R are true, and R is the correct explanation of A.
Both A and R are true, but R is not the correct explanation of A.
A is true, but R is false.
A is false, but R is true.
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
Both statements are true but unrelated; cutting with the same enzyme ensures compatibility of ends, while gel electrophoresis is for separation based on size.
