A transgenic organism __________.
has a gene from another species inserted in its DNA |
||
has been changed from one species into another |
||
is found only in crop plants |
||
has been cloned from an adult cell |
Answer: Option 1- has a gene from another species inserted in its DNA.
Explanation: A transgenic organism is one who has a foreign gene inserted in its genome by the mode of genetic engineering. The expression of the inserted gene is seen in the host species. So, Option 1 is the right answer.
The Option 2 is not the right answer as the transgenic organism can be considered an altered or modified organism but conversation of one species to another is not done by this process. The transgenic organism now acquire the new trait of the transferred gene.
Option 3 is not the right answer as transgenic organisms are not only found in crop plants. It is found in animals, bacteria also.
Option 4 is not the right answer as the creation of transgenic is not a clonning process. A foreign DNA is transferred to the recipient organism.
