Level 2: 60%+
Hints
The role of DNA ligase in the construction of a recombinant DNA molecule is
| 1. | formation of phosphodiester bond between two DNA fragments |
| 2. | formation of hydrogen bonds between sticky ends of DNA fragments |
| 3. | ligation of all purine and pyrimidine bases |
| 4. | None of the above |

Level 3: 35%-60%
Hints
A bacterial cell was transformed with a recombinant DNA that was generated using a human gene. However, the transformed cells did not produce the desired protein. Reasons could be:
| 1. | human genes may have intron which bacteria cannot process |
| 2. | amino acid codons for humans and bacteria are different |
| 3. | human protein is formed but degraded by bacteria |
| 4. | All of the above |
