Solution

The correct option is A Escherichia coli
Recombinant DNA or rDNA technology was discovered by Stanley Cohen and Herbert Boyer. They inserted the rDNA molecule they created into E.coli by means of a plasmid, thereby inducing the uptake and expression of a foreign DNA sequence also known as transformation.
So, option B is the correct option.
