Refer to the figure showing the recognition sequence for EcoRI.DNA ligase closes the phosphodiester gap between nucleotides that have been cut with restriction enzymes and then reannealed between DNA strands cut with the same restriction enzyme. In the figure, the phosphate groups are located on
A) the guanosine nucleotide located on the top strand and the adenine nucleotide found on the bottom strand.
B) the guanosine nucleotides found on both strands.
C) the adenine nucleotide located on the top strand and the guanosine nucleotide found on the bottom strand.
D) the adenine nucleotides found on both strands.
E) both the adenines and guanosines found on both strands.
