Assertion : in recombinant DNA technolog...

Assertion : in recombinant DNA technology, human genes are often transferred into bacteria (prokaryotes) or yeast (eukaryote).
Reason: Both bacteria and yeast multiply very fast to form huge population which express the desired gene.

A

If both the assertion and the reason are true and the reason is a correct explanation of the assertion

B

If both the assertion and reason are true but the reason is not a correct explanation of the assertion

C

IF the assertion is true but the reason is false

D

If both the assertion and reason are false

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
a
Bacteria and yeast can easily grow in culture medium and multiply very fast so it is best for making many copies of recombinant DNA, and express character of desired gene.
