Which of the following is not a cloning vector?
- YAC
- pBR322
- Probe
- BAC
The Correct Option is C
Solution and Explanation
A probe is not a cloning vector. It is a short, labeled DNA or RNA molecule used to detect the presence of a complementary sequence in a sample, typically for molecular biology techniques like hybridization. Cloning vectors, on the other hand, are used to carry and replicate foreign DNA fragments in host organisms for various purposes in genetic engineering and molecular biology.
YAC (Yeast Artificial Chromosome), pBR322, and BAC (Bacterial Artificial Chromosome) are examples of cloning vectors.
so, the correct option is (C): Probe

Enzymes - Biology
Enzymes are proteins that help accelerate metabolism or the chemical reactions in our bodies. They build some substances and decompose others. All living creatures have enzymes.
Our bodies naturally build enzymes. But enzymes are also in mass produce products and food.
One of the most important roles of enzymes is to succor digestion. The process of turning the food that we eat into energy is called digestion. For instance, there are enzymes in our saliva, pancreas, stomach, and intestines. They decompose fats, proteins, and carbohydrates. Enzymes make use of these nutrients for growth and cell repair.
