Solution

The correct option is D 1,2,3 and 4
D. 1,2,3 and 4
Solution: Insulin, human growth hormone, interferons and hepatitis B surface antigen have been produced from genetically engineered microbes (E.coli, Yeast. etc.) by introducing the original hormone-producing gene from the organism into the vector.
So the correct answer is "1,2.3 and 4".
