Solution

The correct option is A Both Assertion and Reason are true and Reason is correct explanation of the Assertion.

Recombinant DNA is a form of DNA whose nucleotide sequence has undergone alteration as a result of incorporation of exchange with another DNA strand. In recombinant DNA technology, human genes are often transferred into bacteria or yeast because both bacteria and yeast multiply very fast to form huge population, which expresses the desired gene. By doing so, one can observe the phenotypes of the gene more quickly and in a larger scale than by studying the same traist in humans.
