Vedclass · Answer

(D) Genetic engineering,also known as recombinant $DNA$ technology,involves the manipulation of an organism's genome to introduce desirable traits. $1$. Development of transgenic plants: Genetic engineering is used to create plants with resistance to pests,herbicides,or improved nutritional content (e.g.,Bt cotton). $2$. Development of vaccines: Recombinant $DNA$ technology allows for the production of safer vaccines,such as the Hepatitis $B$ vaccine produced using yeast. $3$. Gene therapy: This involves replacing a faulty gene with a healthy one to treat genetic disorders. Since all these applications are direct outcomes of genetic engineering,the correct answer is $D$.
