a. Antisense
b. Clone
c. Library
d. Southern blot
e. Vector

검증된 단계별 안내

Identify the key concept in the statement: 'Self-replicating DNA for transmitting a gene from one organism to another.' This refers to a DNA molecule that can replicate independently and is used to carry genetic material between organisms.
Recall the definitions of the given options:
a. antisense - a strand of nucleic acid complementary to a messenger RNA (mRNA) strand, used to block gene expression.
b. clone - a genetically identical copy of a DNA fragment or organism.
c. library - a collection of DNA fragments cloned into vectors, representing the genome or transcriptome of an organism.
d. Southern blot - a laboratory method used to detect specific DNA sequences in DNA samples.
e. vector - a DNA molecule used as a vehicle to transfer foreign genetic material into another cell, typically self-replicating.
Match the statement to the correct term: since the statement describes self-replicating DNA used to transmit genes, the correct match is the term that defines such a DNA molecule, which is a 'vector'.

Vector

A vector is a self-replicating DNA molecule used to transfer genetic material between organisms. Common vectors include plasmids and viruses, which facilitate gene cloning and expression in host cells.
