Which statement about a cloning vector is incorrect?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: It is always a starch-digesting enzyme

The direct answer is D: it is always a starch-digesting enzyme. The question asks for the incorrect statement. A cloning vector is a DNA carrier used to transport foreign DNA into a host and often to help it replicate or be selected. It can therefore carry foreign DNA, so A is correct. It can contain an ori, the origin of replication, so B is correct. It can contain a selectable marker, such as a gene allowing identification of cells that received the vector, so C is correct. D is incorrect because a vector is a DNA molecule or DNA-based carrier, not always an enzyme; it is certainly not defined as a starch-digesting enzyme. Some vectors may carry genes for various proteins, but that does not make the vector itself that enzyme. Memory cue: vector = carrier, ori = copying, marker = selection; it is not automatically a digestive enzyme.
