Detailed explanation-1: -These restriction enzymes cleave the plasmid at specific sites. On cleaving a circular DNA 3 fragments of DNA will be obtained as there are 3 recognition sites for restriction enzyme. Thus, the correct answer is option C.
Detailed explanation-2: -If a linear DNA molecule is digested with a restriction enzyme at four recognition sites, 4 fragments would be produced. II. If a closed circular DNA molecule is digested with a restriction enzyme at six recognition sites, 6 fragments would be produced. III.
Detailed explanation-3: -If a linear DNA molecule is digested with a restriction enzyme at four recognition sites on the DNA, 5 fragments would be produced.
Detailed explanation-4: -When a closed circular DNA molecule is digested with a restriction enzyme having six recognition sites, it will produce 6 DNA fragments.
