Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
b
Vector is DNA molecule that has the ability to replicate autonomously in an appropriate host cell and into which the DNA fragment to be cloned is intergrated for cloning. In higher organism retroviruses vectors are used, while Baculovirus vectors are used for production of transgenic proteins in silkworm.
