    The given statement is true.

    Explanation:

    An error at the time of the replication of DNA or mutation can either result in the addition or deletion of DNA bases that eventually makes a substantial change in the sequence of DNA, and thus, will exhibit a substantial influence on the recognition sequence because of which one can witness a change in the site of recognition.

    This variation witnessed in the DNA's recognition site can be evaluated by treating the mutated DNA with the restriction enzymes that exhibit a uniqueness for the restriction sites. Afterward, by going through the process of gel electrophoresis one can witness the change in the number of bands of DNA showing variation in the restriction sites.
