In genetic engineering, which of the following is used?
Plasmid
Plastid
Mitochondria
ER
A.
Plasmid
A plasmid is a small DNA molecule within a cell that is physically separated from chromosomal DNA and can replicate independently. They are widely used in Genetic engineering experiments as vectors which carry desired segment of DNA to the target organism.
Abundance of a species in a population, within habitat is called
niche density
absolute density
relative density
geographic density
