उत्तर
(i) EcoRI
(ii)
| 5'CAG3' | 5'AATTCTTA3' |
| 3'GTCTTAA 5' | 3'GAAT5' |
(iii) Because they create hydrogen connections with their complementary cut sections, these are known as sticky ends.

What is meant by gene cloning?
Cloning of genes, play a very significant role in genetic engineering, helping the transfer of desirable foreign genes into different hosts. The scientists, to make this process easier and effective are creating engineered vectors in such a way that they help easy linking of foreign DNA and selection of recombinants from non-recombinants. 'pBR322' is one such engineered vectors developed by scientists. A diagram of an engineered vector pBR322 is given below:

- Name the host for this cloning vector.
