Answer:

recombinant DNA

A strand of DNA formed by splicing DNA from 2 different organisms is called recombinant DNA

Explanation:

Using the techniques of recombinant DNA technology, certain enzymes known as restriction enzymes capable of cleaving double stranded DNA in the plasmid of bacteria genomes (other organisms like eukaryotes can also be used) are used to obtain specific sequences of DNA bearing desirable traits in the both organisms.

Once the two DNA fragments have been obtained, another enzyme known as DNA ligase is used to seal the point of splicing, thereby constructing a single DNA from the two organisms.

This single DNA is known as Recombinant DNA

Why skeletal connective tissue is also known as supporting connective tissue.
ANEK [815]

Answer:

Supportive connective tissue—bone and cartilage—provide structure and strength to the body and protect soft tissues. A few distinct cell types and densely packed fibers in a matrix characterize these tissues. In bone, the matrix is rigid and described as calcified because of the deposited calcium salts.
