Question

which description is the best definition of a recombinant gene? dna that is composed of a combination of dna sequences from two or more organisms. dna that composes the genome of a cell that is the product of multiple rounds of asexual reproduction. dna that contains both the template strand and the newly synthesized dna strand within a single double - helix molecule. dna that contains segments of dna as well as segments of rna within a single genome.

Explanation:

A recombinant gene is formed by combining DNA from different organisms. This is a key concept in genetic engineering. The other options do not accurately define a recombinant gene. The second option refers to a cell's genome from asexual reproduction, the third to DNA - replication within a single molecule, and the fourth to a genome with both DNA and RNA segments which is not the definition of a recombinant gene.

Answer:

DNA that is composed of a combination of DNA sequences from two or more organisms.
