A Correct answer
Explanation

Correct answer. Hybridoma is a cell that is produced in the laboratory from the fusion of an antibody-producing lymphocyte and a non-antibody-producing cancer cell, usually a myeloma or lymphoma. It proliferates and produces a continuous supply of a specific monoclonal antibody. During recombinant insulin synthesis, the bond between insulin polypeptide and galactosidase can be removed by using cyanogen bromide. The Ti plasmid (tumor-inducing plasmid) of agrobacterium tumefaciens has been developed as a vehicle for introducing foreign genes into plants. Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR), is a technology used for amplifying DNA sequences.
