Options
- AA-II, B-I, C-III, D-IV
- BA-I, B-II, C-IV, D-III
- CA-I, B-II, C-III, D-IV
- DA-IV, B-II, C-III, D-I
Correct answer
C. A-I, B-II, C-III, D-IV
Step-by-step solution
Cutting of DNA at specific locations is carried out by restriction endonucleases (A-I). After cutting, the DNA fragments are separated and the desired DNA fragment is isolated using agarose gel electrophoresis (B-II). The isolated gene of interest is then amplified using Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) (C-III). Finally, the recombinant DNA is introduced into a competent host cell through processes like transformation (D-IV). Therefore, the correct match is A-I, B-II, C-III, D-IV. Answer: A-I, B-II, C-III, D-IV
