Identify the correct statements: 
I:  In the Cohen and Boyer experiment, the linking of antibiotic resistance gene with a plasmid vector became possible with the enzyme DNA ligase.
II:  Recombinant DNA molecules are DNA molecules formed by laboratory methods of genetic recombination that bring together genetic material from multiple sources, creating sequences that would not otherwise be found in the genome.
