What is the fate of piece of DNA carrying only gene of interest which is transferred into an alien organism? A. The piece of DNA would be able to multiply itself independently in the progeny cells of the organisms. B. It may get integrated into the genome of the recipient. C. It may multiply and be inherited along with the host DNA. D. The alien piece of DNA is not an integrated part of chromosome. E. It shows ability to replicate. Choose the correct answer from the options given below:A piece of DNA carrying only the gene of interest (without an origin of replication) cannot multiply independently in the alien organism. It may get integrated into the genome of the recipient (B), and then it may multiply and be inherited along with the host DNA (C). So B and C only are correct.
