A Correct answer
Explanation

Invitro, in Latin, means “in glass”. It refers to biological process occurring usually under experimental conditions, outside the cell or organism body. This holds good for tissue culture and it also gives large-scale commercial yield. On the contrary, natural selection, budding and sporulation are natural, i.e. in-vivo methods and cannot be used for large-scale production.
