Solution

The correct option is A DNA clone
(A) DNA clone is obtained from the technique of DNA cloning. It is a molecular biology technique used for the creation of exact replicas or clones of a particular gene or DNA using genetic engineer techniques.
(B) Gene map helps to describe the spatial arrangement of genes on chromosomes.
(C) DNA library is a collection of DNA fragments that have been cloned into vectors so that researchers can identify and isolate the DNA fragments that interest them for further study.
(D) DNA probes are used to identify and label DNA fragments that contain a specific sequence.
So the correct option is 'DNA clone'.
