Which of the following is used to cut DNA from organisms?
A
Gel Electrophoresis
B
Restriction Enzymes
C
Karyotypes
D
Haplotypes
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: -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).
