Sequence the steps to making recombinant DNA from 1 to 5. 20. The plasmid becomes part of a host cell's chromosome.
21. A DNA fragment is inserted into a plasmid.
22. The DNA fragment replicates during cell division.
23. The plasmid enters a host bacterial cell.
24. A host cell produces a protein that it would not have produced naturally.

A DNA fragment is inserted into a plasmid.

The DNA fragment replicates during cell division.

The plasmid enters a host bacterial cell.

The plasmid becomes part of a host cell's chromosome.

A host cell produces a protein that it would not have produced naturally.

Explanation:

Recombinant DNA is the DNA molecules formed invitro or lab condition with the help of a plasmid, bacterial cell as host and a desirable gene or DNA fragment by the technique of genetic engineering or recombination. This is also known as molecular cloning.

The correct order of steps in the DNA recombination process are as follows:

The desired DNA fragment is inserted into a vector or plasmid.

The DNA fragment replicates during cell division.

The plasmid enters a cell of host bacterial

The plasmid becomes part of a host cell's chromosome.

A host cell produces a protein that it would not have produced naturally.
