Question

question 3 (1 point)
which of the following is not a transgenic organisms with potential applications to address a problem in science?
a) plants with the gene for chlorophyll production removed.
b) goats producing human clotting factor in their milk
c) corn with a gene for herbicide resistance
d) bacteria with a gene for cleaning oil spills

Explanation:

Transgenic organisms have foreign genes inserted. Chlorophyll - producing gene is essential for plants' basic photosynthesis. Removing it would not be a transgenic application (as it's removing a native gene, not adding a foreign one). While bacteria with oil - cleaning genes (bioremediation), corn with herbicide - resistance genes (agricultural benefit), and goats with human clotting factor genes (medical/pharmaceutical use) are transgenic applications.

Answer:

A. plants with the gene for chlorophyll production removed
