Q. Variable number of tandem repeats (VNTRs) in the DNA molecule are highly useful in
A) Recombinant DNA technology
B) DNA fingerprinting
C) Monoclonal antibody production
D) Stem cell culture
Explanation
Variable Number Tandem Repeats (VNTRs) are short nucleotide repeats that vary in number from person to person but are inherited. These can be recognized only through molecular analyses of DNA samples and are important for DNA fingerprinting.
