32. The CRISPR-Cas system helps some prokaryotes defend against the phage! Which of the following statements correctly describes how this system works? A) it produces RNA that is translated into proteins that attack viral DNA. B) it inserts specific genes randomly into the prokaryotic genome C) it causes the synthesis of proteins that are then secreted by the prokaryote that attack viruses in the environment. D) it cuts viral DNA at specific sequences before it can replicate.
