Creating a transgenic organism is an example of ____
A
PCR
B
Genetic Engineering
C
Gel Electrophorsis
D
Gene Therapy
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Genetically modified organisms (GMOs) are produced by inserting genetic material (sometimes from another species) into a plant such that the new genetic material will provide the plant the ability to exhibit some desirable trait (i.e., genetic engineering).

Detailed explanation-2: -A genetically modified organism (GMO) is an animal, plant, or microbe whose DNA has been altered using genetic engineering techniques. For thousands of years, humans have used breeding methods to modify organisms. Corn, cattle, and even dogs have been selectively bred over generations to have certain desired traits.

Detailed explanation-3: -A transgenic, or genetically modified, organism is one that has been altered through recombinant DNA technology, which involves either the combining of DNA from different genomes or the insertion of foreign DNA into a genome.
