A piece of DNA, somehow transferred into an alien organism, will be able to multiply itself in the progeny cells of organism if:

1. It includes the centromere
2. It becomes a part of chromosome
3. It does not contain any intron sequences
4. It is a single stranded polynucleotide

In recombinant DNA experiments, a vector:

1. carries DNA into a new cell 
2. links together newly joined fragments of DN
3. makes millions of copies of a specific segment of DNA
4. separates fragments of DNA by their length and electrical charges

The ability of plasmids and bacteriophage DNA to replicate within bacterial cells:

1. depends on a particular or sequence of the main chromosomal DNA
2. is possible due to promoter sequence present in the insert
3. cannot occur without telomeric sequences
4. is independent of the control of chromosomal DNA

If we are able to link an alien piece of DNA with bacteriophage or plasmid DNA, we can multiply its number:

1. more than the number of copy number of bacteriophages in the cells and equal to the copy number of plasmid in the cell.
2. equal to the number of copy number of bacteriophages in the cells and equal to the copy number of plasmid in the cell.
3. equal to the number of copy number of bacteriophages in the cells and less than the copy number of plasmid in the cell.
4. less than the number of copy number of bacteriophages in the cells and more than the copy number of plasmid in the cell.
