Given below is a sample of a portion of DNA strand. What is so special shown in it?

  1. A
    Palindromic sequence of base pairs
  2. B
    Replication completed
  3. C
    Deletion mutation
  4. D
    Start codon at the end

Solution & Step-by-step Explanation

A palindromic sequence in DNA is a sequence where the base pairs read the same on the two strands when read in the same direction (e.g., ). The sequence is the specific palindromic recognition site for the restriction enzyme EcoRI.
