- Q1
What is the purpose of DNA cloning?
To create genetic material for cloning
To create identical copies of an organism
To create identical copies of a gene
To create proteins for medical purposes
10s - Q2
How is the gene of interest cut out from the DNA?
Using restriction enzymes
Using plasmids
Using heat shock
Using DNA ligase
10s - Q3
Which enzymes are used to cut out the gene?
Heat shock
Restriction enzymes
DNA ligase
Plasmids
10s - Q4
What is a plasmid?
A type of bacteria
A piece of genetic material
A nutrient for bacteria
A protein that expresses itself
10s - Q5
How are the gene and plasmid connected?
Through DNA ligase
Through restriction enzymes
Through heat shock
Through antibiotics
10s - Q6
What is the purpose of the heat shock?
To cut out the gene of interest
To insert theplasmid into the organism
To select for bacteria with antibiotic resistance
To replicate the DNA
10s - Q7
How are bacteria that have taken up the plasmid selected?
Through antibiotic resistance
Through nutrient growth
Through heatshock
Through gene manipulation
10s - Q8
Why are antibiotics added to the nutrient mixture?
To kill off bacteria
To encourage bacterial growth
To prevent bacteria from growing
To select for bacteria with antibiotic resistance
10s - Q9
What is the ultimate goal of DNA cloning?
To create multiple copies of a gene
To replicate the DNA of an organism
To produce insulin for diabetics
To create antibiotic-resistant bacteria
10s - Q10
How can the bacteria be used to make use of the cloned gene?
By using its genetic material
By using its productive machinery
By using its antibiotic resistance
By using its reproductive machinery
