Restriction enzymes are used in genetic engineering because
They can join different DNA fragments
They can cut DNA at specific base sequence
They are proteolytic enzymes which can degrade harmful proteins
They are nucleases that cut DNA at variable sites
The sum total of genetic make up of an organism is
Genome
Gene
Chromosome
Enzyme
