A) If it has more than 10,000 copies in the genome, it is a LINE; if not, it is a DNA transposon.
B) If it has more than 10,000 copies in the genome, it is a DNA transposon; if not, it is a LINE.
C) If it contains the sequence GCTCGATC, it is a LINE; if not, it is a DNA transposon.
D) If it uses an RNA intermediate, it is a LINE; if not, it is a DNA transposon.
E) If it uses a "copy and paste" mechanism, it is a DNA transposon; if not, it is a LINE.
