Recombinant DNA (rDNA) is an artificial DNA sequence resulting from the combining of two other DNA sequences in a plasmid.
rDNA is made by splicing a DNA fragment of interest into a small, quickly replicating molecule (such as a bacterial plasmid).
The term recombinant DNA refers to a new combination of DNA molecules that are not found together naturally.

Ribonucleic acid (RNA) is a nucleic acid polymer consisting of nucleotide monomers.
RNA serves as the template for translation of genes into proteins, transferring amino acids to the ribosome to form proteins, and also translating the transcript into proteins.

RNA and DNA are different chemicals. The difference is that RNA is ribonucleic acid and DNA is deoxyribonucleic acid. Different names for different chemicals

Recombination is something that happens during the process that makes sperm or egg cells. It's a swapping genes between chromosomes. Recombinant DNA is the part of the DNA that participates in the process, non-recombinant DNA does not get shuffled from one chromosome to another

Parts of the Y chromosome don't participate in recombination. Those parts are non-recombinant DNA.
