Assertion (A):  During the heat shock method, the cells are incubated with recombinant
DNA at \(42^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\), following by placing them briefly on ice and then putting if back at \(42^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\).
Reason (R):  After heat shock, uptake of DNA through transient pores in the bacterial cell wall takes place. 
 
1.  Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation of (A).
2. Both (A) and (R) are true but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A).
3. (A) is true but (R) is false.
