(cDNA) is DNA synthesized from a single-stranded RNA (e.g., messenger RNA (mRNA) or microRNA) template in a reaction catalyzed by the enzyme reverse transcriptase. cDNA is often used to clone eukaryotic genes in prokaryotes

cDNA stands for complementary DNA and it allows the cell to clone eukaryotic DNA in prokaryotes.
Explanation:
cDNA is a copy of DNA that can be derived from either prokaryotes or eukaryotes. It is used in genetic engineering to produce clones of other genes. cDNA is synthesized from mRNA using an enzyme called reverse transcriptase.
