It is useful to use restriction enzymes in rDNA experiments that produce sticky ends in the resultant fragments because:
1. | it allows a cell to recognize fragments produced by the enzyme |
2. | the single-stranded ends serve as starting points for DNA replication |
3. | the fragments will bond to other fragments with complementary single-stranded ends |
4. | only single-stranded DNA segments can code for proteins |

Gene cloning occurs:
1. | when a phage transfers bacterial DNA from one bacterium to another. |
2. | when a bacterium takes up DNA from the surrounding fluid. |
3. | when a bacterium carrying a recombinant plasmid reproduces, thus allowing for the production of multiple copies of the recombinant plasmid. |
4. | when DNA is produced from an RNA template. |

Restriction enzymes do not act on the DNA of the host cell in which they are produced, because :
1. | Host DNA is packed into chromosomes |
2. | Restriction enzymes are ineffective on host DNA |
3. | Host DNA does not have the restriction site for the restriction enzymes. |
4. | Restriction site of host DNA is methylated. |
