Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Restriction enzymes, also called restriction endonucleases, recognize a specific sequence of nucleotides in double stranded DNA and cut the DNA at a specific location.
Detailed explanation-2: -Restriction enzymes are DNA-cutting enzymes. Each enzyme recognizes one or a few target sequences and cuts DNA at or near those sequences. Many restriction enzymes make staggered cuts, producing ends with single-stranded DNA overhangs.
