Read the given statements and select the correct option. Statement 1: Both bacteria and yeast multiply very fast to form huge populations which express the desired gene. Statement 2: In recombianr DNA technology, human genes are often transferred into bacteria (prokaryotes) or yeast (eukaryotes).

Assertion: Recombinant DNA technology has become successful because of the presence of restriction endonucleases in eukaryotic cells. Reason: Restriction endonucleases cut the DNA molecule to form blund ends.
