A specific recognition sequence identified by endonucleases to make cuts at specific positions within the DNA is:

  1. Degenerate primer sequence
  2. Okazaki sequences
  3. Palindromic Nucleotide sequences
  4. Poly(A) tail sequences

Solution

Each restriction enzyme recognizes a specific palindromic nucleotide sequence in DNA. Palindrome in DNA is a sequence of base pairs that reads the same on the two strands when the orientation of reading is kept the same. These sequences may range from 4-8 nucleotides in length.
