Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
When we cut a gene out of a strand of DNA and paste it into another strand of DNA, we have:
A
Ribosomes.
B
Message DNA or RNA.
C
Lycopene.
D
Recombinant DNA.
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -DNA cloning is the process of making multiple, identical copies of a particular piece of DNA. In a typical DNA cloning procedure, the gene or other DNA fragment of interest (perhaps a gene for a medically important human protein) is first inserted into a circular piece of DNA called a plasmid.

Detailed explanation-2: -The discovery of enzymes that could cut and paste DNA made genetic engineering possible. Restriction enzymes, found naturally in bacteria, can be used to cut DNA fragments at specific sequences, while another enzyme, DNA ligase, can attach or rejoin DNA fragments with complementary ends.

Detailed explanation-3: -Genome editing (also called gene editing) is a group of technologies that give scientists the ability to change an organism’s DNA. These technologies allow genetic material to be added, removed, or altered at particular locations in the genome.
