Solution

The correct option is A Genetic engineering
Genetic engineering is the method used in the development of the genetically modified organisms. This technique is useful in plant and animal breeding to produce the organisms with desired and superior characters. This is a technique where the selected gene of one organism is introduced into the DNA of another organism acquires the genetic abilities of the donor. The donor gene is introduced into the host organism to form the genetically modified organism.
Thus, the correct answer is option A.
