Using recombinant DNA technology, genes from a donor cell can be implanted into a bacterium for DNA replication and protein synthesis. The kind of cell(s) that can be used as gene donors in this technology is/are:

1. Bacteria only
2. Either yeast or bacteria only
3. Eukaryotic cells only
4. Any kind of cell

Hybridization of mRNA with DNA can reveal which segment of the DNA are introns and which segment are exons. When the magnification is high enough to see the molecule, the introns appear as
1. Single stranded loops in a double stranded molecule
2. Separate fragments
3. Triple stranded nucleic acid molecules
4. Barr bodies
