EcoRI always cut DNA molecules at a particular point by recognizing a specific sequence between (A) G and A (B) T and C (C) A and A (D) T and T

Restriction enzymes, also called restriction nucleases (EcoRI in this example) , surrounds the DNA molecule at the point it seeks(sequence GAATTC). EcoRI cuts one strand of the DNA double helix at one point and the second strand at a different, complementary point (between the G and the A base).
