Question

Match the following
Column I Column II
P. Gene cloning i. DNA from multiple sources
Q. Recombinant DNA ii.Copies of gene of interest
R. Genetic engineering iii. Vegetative propagation
S. Clones iv.Techniques used to modify the genome of an organism

• A.
• B.
• C.
• D.

Answer 1

The correct option is A

Gene cloning is the process in which exact copies of a gene of interest is made. Recombinant DNA is formed by bringing together genetic material from multiple sources by techniques used in genetic engineering. Genetic engineering involves a range of techniques used to alter the genome of organisms by transferring genes within and across species. Cloning is the process of producing genetically identical individuals. Vegetative propagation produces clones of the mother plant.
