In rDNA technology, a plasmid molecule serves as a vector in which the insert or gene of insert is ligated to for chimeric DNA or recombinant DNA. It is an important step in DNA cloning. Thus formed chimeric vector can be propagated in E.coli for large production of clones. If you clone the gene in an expression vector you can express proteins in the host bacterium.
2 DNA strands (a strand consisting of Sugar-phosphate backbone and nitrogenous base) join by hydrogen bonds.

When DNA contains parts from two or more organisms it is recombined. Recombinant DNA is often used in genetic engineering. A natural process of DNA recombination is called sexual reproduction.

The word you're looking for may be "recombinant".
Chimeras. In genetic engineering, molecules of combined DNA are known as chimeras because they are produced by combining DNA from different species. Combined DNA is also known as recombinant DNA, since DNA from 2 sources has been recombined to produce it.
DNA and proteins
The last step in the production of a recombinant DNA plasmid is joining the DNA. This is done by adding DNA ligase to joint DNA fragments.
when a part or code of the dna is cut and spliced elsewhere it is called recombinant dna. an example direct injection of new dna into the nucleus with a gene gun

Genetic engineering involves the use of recombinant DNA technology, the process by which a DNA sequence is manipulated in vitro, thus creating recombinant DNA molecules that have new combinations of genetic material
No, Recombinant DNA is a collection of methods to analyse and create DNA molecules from two 'unrelated' organisms and then combined into one. See this website for a visual example at http://users.rcn.com/jkimball.ma.ultranet/BiologyPages/R/RecombinantDNA.html
