Plasmid Engineering

What takes place after the gene is extracted and the plasmid is cut open?

• The plasmid is inserted into the bacterial cell

• The gene is extracted from the chromosome

• The gene is inserted into the plasmid

• The bacterial cell multiplies

• Gene of interest

• Plasmid

• Nucleus

• Ribosome

What molecule is used to 'glue' a foreign gene into the plasmid?

• restriction enzyme

• ligase

• polymerase

• DNA

Why is the genetically modified plasmid added into a bacterial cell?

• To reproduce rapidly

• To reproduce slowly

• It is the only cell that fits

• It looks good

• Structure X is a Gene

• Structure X is a Plasmid

• Structure X is a Chromosome

• Structure X is a Bacterial Cell

What is transferred from one organism to another during Genetic Engineering?

• A nucleus

• Enzymes

• Genetic information

• Plasmids

A molecule of DNA combined from two different organisms is called

• a plasmid.

• a polyploid.

• a hybrid organism.

• recombinant DNA.

molecular scissors that "cut' DNA

• plasmid
• restriction enzymes
• recombinant DNA
• gene

What is recombinant DNA

• DNA from 2 different organisms combined

• DNA from 2 different ribosomes

• DNA that is separated out from a vector
