Suppose ENZ-1 and ENZ-2 are two different restriction enzymes. If various pieces of DNA from different species are cut with these enzymes (as follows), which would most easily form recombinant molecules?
A) Human DNA cut with ENZ-2 and gorilla cut with ENZ-2
B) Bacterial DNA cut with ENZ-1 and bacterial DNA cut with ENZ-2
C) Human DNA cut with ENZ-1 and human DNA cut with ENZ-2
D) Human DNA cut with ENZ-1 and gorilla DNA cut with ENZ-2

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Human DNA and gorilla DNA are very similar, so when cut with the same enzyme (ENZ-2), the ends of the DNA fragments will be compatible, making it easier to form recombinant molecules.
