The cause of the change in insect characteristics occurred when a few survivors of the 1st spray became resistant to the insecticide. When they had offspring, those insect babies are born with the trait that made them resistant to insecticide. This occurs when the parents pass on the trait to their offspring. The end result is that the insecticide is less effective and more insects survive.
Answer: A
Explanation:
They recognize and bind to specific sequences of DNA, called restriction sites. Each restriction enzyme recognizes just one or a few restriction sites. When it finds its target sequence, a restriction enzyme will make a double-stranded cut in the DNA molecule.
(Also I think you meant Restriction sites, not Recognition sites.)
