What happens if the restriction site is absent?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: The enzyme will not cut that DNA at that site

Restriction enzymes show sequence specificity: each enzyme recognizes a particular short DNA sequence, called its recognition or restriction site, and cleaves only when that sequence is present in a suitable context. If the site is absent from a DNA molecule, the enzyme has no matching target and therefore cannot make the expected cut at that position. The DNA does not automatically get cut elsewhere, become a protein, or prevent a gel from running. A reaction may still contain uncut DNA or cuts at other matching sites. Thus option A correctly states the direct consequence of absence of the restriction site.
