Match the following enzymes with their functions:

Column I	Column II
(A)	Restriction	(I)	Joins the DNA endonuclease fragements
(B)	Restriction	(II)	Extends primers exonuclease on genomic DNA template
(C)	DNA ligase	(III)	Cuts DNA at specific position
(D)	Taq polymerase	(IV)	Removes nucleotides from the ends of DNA

Select the correct option from the following:

-(III), -(III), -(IV), -(II),

-(I), -(IV), -(III), -(IV),

-(IV), -(I), -(I), -(I),

-(II) -(II) -(II) -(III)

Verified by Experts

The correct answer is:

Restriction endonuclease → (III) Cuts DNA at specific positions

Restriction exonuclease → (IV) Removes nucleotides from DNA ends

DNA ligase → (I) Joins DNA fragments

Taq polymerase → (II) Extends primers on DNA template
