NEET Zoology Recombinant DNA Match the Following Question
Match Column-I with Column-II.
| Column-I | Column-II |
|---|---|
| (a) Restriction Enzymes | (i) Joining DNA ends |
| (b) DNA Ligase | (ii) Cloning vector |
| (c) Plasmid | (iii) Specific recognition sequence |
| (d) Palindromic Sequence | (iv) Molecular scissors |
a-iv, b-i, c-ii, d-iii
a-iii, b-ii, c-i, d-iv
a-ii, b-iv, c-iii, d-i
a-i, b-iii, c-iv, d-ii
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
Restriction enzymes are commonly referred to as 'molecular scissors' because they cut DNA at specific sites (Chunk 1). DNA ligase is the enzyme that joins the ends of DNA fragments (Chunk 2). Plasmids serve as vectors for cloning, and palindromic sequences are the specific recognition sites for restriction enzymes (Chunk 1).
