Consider the two statements:
| I: | Agar Gel electrophoresis is useful in analysis of DNA. |
| II: | DNA is generally positively charged due to its nitrogenous bases so an electrical field forces it to move toward a negative pole. |
| 1. | Both I and II are correct and II explains I |
| 2. | Both I and II are correct but II does not explain I |
| 3. | I is correct but II is incorrect |

| Assertion (A): | In order to link the alien DNA, the vector needs to have very few, preferably single, recognition sites for the commonly used restriction enzymes. |
| Reason (R): | Presence of more than one recognition sites within the vector will generate several fragments, which will complicate the gene cloning. |
| 1. | Both (A) and (R) are True and the (R) is the correct explanation of (A) |
| 2. | Both (A) and (R) are True but the (R) is not the correct explanation of (A) |

| Assertion (A): | When constructing rDNA, the vector DNA should never be cut by the same restriction endonuclease that was used to cut the donor DNA |
| Reason (R): | Use of same restriction endonuclease will generate same kind of sticky ends retarding the function of DNA ligase. |
| 1. | Both (A) and (R) are True and (R) is the correct explanation of (A) |
