(he first part below before the slash is the chromosome and the second part after the slash is the plasmid; F' plasmid DNA. a+ 3+ O Yes, yes o Not possible to determine O Yes, no O No, yes O No, no

Explanation / Answer

Hi...

Answer:

Making copies of a gene by inserting it into a host genome and growing that organism, is an example of GENE CLONING.

in second part of question its not so much clear but as per the information given above the the cell will not produce betaglactosidase in first case where as in second case they can able to produce (option 4) will be the answer.
