Recombinants contains DNA from

Correct answer: A. Two different sources

  • A. Two different sources
  • B. A single source
  • C. Two identical sources
  • D. Three identical sources

Explanation

Recombinant DNA technology is the process of joining together DNA from two different species, resulting in a new genetic combination that can be used in various fields such as science, medicine, agriculture, and industry. The key aspect is that the DNA must come from two distinct sources to create the recombinant DNA molecule. Options B, C, and D are incorrect because they involve DNA from the same source or multiple identical sources, which does not meet the criteria for recombination.
