Submit quiz
Once you submit, you will no longer be able to change your answers. Are you sure you want to submit the quiz?
1.

An advantage of producing human insulin by recombinant DNA technology is that it

is identical to human insulin and avoids immune reactions
is cheaper to extract from animals
needs no purification
contains animal viruses
2.

Factor VIII produced by recombinant technology is used to treat

diabetes
SCID
cystic fibrosis
haemophilia
3.
Recombinant DNA technology often uses plasmids because they
are found only in humans
can carry foreign genes into bacteria
are made of protein
cannot replicate
4.

Recombinant DNA is

DNA copied by PCR
single-stranded DNA
DNA formed by joining pieces from two or more different sources
mutated DNA
5.

Which of the following is not a way to form recombinant DNA?
Translation
Conjugation
Specialized transduction
Transformation
6.

Recombinant DNA contains

only bacterial DNA
only human DNA
no genes
DNA from two different sources
7.
Which statement best describes Recombinant DNA?

A small circular DNA loop in bacteria, used as a vector to carry a gene.
DNA combining sequences from more than one source.
Directly changing an organism's DNA, often by inserting a gene from another species.
