Which of the following describes a way that biotechnology is used.
A
Developing better tools for heart transplants.
B
Manufacturing better car parts for maximum driving safety.
C
Inserting a gene from a plant into a bacteria to make fuel.
D
Engineering stronger materials used for construction.
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -GM is a technology that involves inserting DNA into the genome of an organism. To produce a GM plant, new DNA is transferred into plant cells. Usually, the cells are then grown in tissue culture where they develop into plants. The seeds produced by these plants will inherit the new DNA.

Detailed explanation-2: -Genetic Engineering For example, genetic engineering may involve adding a gene from one species to an organism from a different species to produce a desired trait.

Detailed explanation-3: -Recombinant DNA: DNA which has been altered from its original form by joining genetic material from two different sources. It usually involves putting a gene or part of a gene obtained from one organism into the genome of a different organism.

Detailed explanation-4: -Recombinant DNA technology is the joining together of DNA molecules from two different species. The recombined DNA molecule is inserted into a host organism to produce new genetic combinations that are of value to science, medicine, agriculture, and industry.
