MCQ
Plants are more readily manipulated by genetic engineering than are animals because:
  • A
    Recombinant genes can be inserted into plant cells by microinjection
  • B
    A somatic plant cell can grow into a complete plant
  • C
    More vectors are available for transferring recombinant DNA into plant cells
  • D
    Plant genes do not contain introns
✓

Answer

  1. A somatic plant cell can grow into a complete plant

Explanation:

Plants have the ability to grow into a complete plant from a single cell. While animals are only produced by their species and reproduction. Hence, they are more readily manipulated by genetic engineering than an animal.
