What happens to cells that do not take up the recombinant plasmid?
they are not transformed, and they die soon after
they are still transformed because the nearby cells are transformed
they change to a new cell with new characteristics
they are not transformed, and their characteristics are not altered.

it's not c. i took the quiz and got it wrong. so my best guess is b.

have a great day, and hope this .

i need

ans.

dna fingerprinting is defined as a process that determines the dna characteristics of an individual. these dna characteristics are unique among individuals as their fingerprints, so it is known as dna fingerprinting.

steps of dna fingerprinting includes extraction of dna from sample, amplification of dna, restriction digestion of amplified dna, and then analysis of dna by gel electrophoresis, respectively.

thus, the next step performed by the scientist is 'to cut the amplified dna (obtained by polymerase chain reaction) by restriction enzymes that cleave the dna into fragments and their analysis.'
