Recombinant DNA used to make GMOs is _______.a) a segment of one gene moved into another place in the DNA of an organism b) genes glued together with proteins c) DNA of one species has been recombined in a process to discover new genes d) DNA that is patched together using DNA from multiple organisms.

Respuesta :

Answer:

d) DNA that is patched together using DNA from multiple organisms.

Explanation:

GMOs are genetically modified organisms. The genome of these organisms has been altered using one or other techniques of genetic engineering. GMOs have recombinant DNA. A recombinant DNA refers to any DNA molecule that is made by combining genes from different organisms.

For instance, the human insulin gene is isolated from the human genome. The isolated gene is inserted into an E. coli plasmid vector molecule. The plasmid DNA molecule carrying the human insulin gene is an example of recombinant DNA. When this recombinant plasmid is introduced into the cells of the E. coli, they become GMOs.
