Solution

The correct option is D karyotyping of the host DNA
Recombinant DNA technology involves recombination of DNA molecules from two different organisms and cloning of this recombinant DNA.
A karyotype is the number and appearance of chromosomes in the nucleus of a eukaryotic cell. While karyotyping is a test that evaluates the number and structure of a person's chromosomes in order to detect abnormalities.
So, the correct option is 'Karyotyping of the host DNA'.
