Question

Genetic engineering has helped in production of

• A. Thyroxine
• B. Insulin
• C. Parathormone
• D. Epinephrine

Answer 1

The correct option is B Insulin

Genetic engineering is the transfer of DNA from one organism to another using biotechnology. Bacterial cells can be genetically modified so that they have the gene for producing human insulin. As these modified bacteria grow, they produce human insulin. This protein can be purified and supplied to diabetics.

So the correct answer is option B.
