Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Restriction endonucleases are enzymes which scan the DNA molecule for a particular nucleotide sequence. These are called recognition sequences. Once the endonuclease finds this sequence it halts and cuts the strand. Thus the correct answer is option C.
Detailed explanation-2: -Restriction enzymes, also called restriction endonucleases, recognize a specific sequence of nucleotides in double stranded DNA and cut the DNA at a specific location.
