Gel electrophoresis is a technique used to

• clone chromosomes.

• separate DNA fragments by size.

• inject foreign DNA into animals and plant cells.

DNA fingerprinting can be used for all the following reasons EXCEPT:

• Identify a criminal

• Determine the parents of a child

• To make a clone

Scientists need to cut DNA in a way so that the two pieces of DNA will stick together. What do scientists use to cut DNA into pieces?

• plasmids

• insulin

• restriction enzymes

When DNA from two different sources is combined, what do we call the new structure?

• plasmids

• recombinant DNA

• restriction enzymes
