Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

The plants obatined through genetic engineering contain a gene or genes usually from an unrelated organism, such genes are called transgenes and the plants containing transgenes are known as transgenic plants. These plants are often called as genetically modifed or GM crops, e.g. flar savr, toamtoes, golden rice. plants are made transgenic for identificatin, expresing the gene activity in time, to produce several chemicals like fatty acids, sugars, cellulose, rubber, etc.
