In order to do genetic engineering you need to make cuts with
A
the same scissors
B
different scissors
C
Either A or B
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -In genetic engineering, restriction enzymes are used for cutting DNA fragments. A restriction enzyme (or restriction endonuclease) is an enzyme that cuts any DNA at or near specific recognition nucleotide sequences (known as restriction sites).

Detailed explanation-2: -CRISPR is a gene editing technology that originates from an adaptive component of bacterial immune systems that can cut DNA like a precise molecular scissors. It stands for Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats.

Detailed explanation-3: -Similar to some other gene editing tools, CRISPR works like a pair of molecular scissors. It cuts DNA at specific locations and either deletes sections or replaces them with alternate sequences.
