Why the whole lacZ gene can’t be present in the plasmid at one time?

Why the whole lacZ gene can’t be present in the plasmid at one time? Correct Answer The whole lac Z gene is very large in size and the plasmid size is small

The whole lacZ gene is not present in a plasmid because the plasmids are generally small in size and the lacZ gene is large in size. And if the whole gene is present, it makes the overall size very large.
