E Correct answer
Explanation

This option is correct because SeSaM and Error prone PCR are examples of random mutagenesis strategies. Sequence saturation mutagenesis (SeSaM) is a conceptually novel and practically simple method that truly randomizes a target sequence at every single nucleotide position and Error prone PCR is a method by which random mutants may be inserted into any piece of DNA.
