check it

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

To determine the correct option, we recall the definitions of ex vivo and in vivo gene therapy. "In vivo" means "within the living" (inside the body), and "ex vivo" means "outside the living" (outside the body). The first option correctly states that in vivo therapy is done inside the body and ex vivo therapy is done outside the body. The second option swaps these definitions, which is incorrect.

Answer:

A. in vivo therapy is done inside the body; ex vivo therapy is done outside the body
