question 24
what is the type of organism (agrobacterium tumefaciens) used to inject new genes into crop plants in genetic engineering?
bacterium
fungus
virus
protist

Explanation:

Agrobacterium tumefaciens is a well - known bacterium in genetic engineering. It has the natural ability to transfer DNA (T - DNA) to plant cells. This property is exploited in genetic engineering to inject new genes into crop plants. Fungi, viruses, and protistans do not match the taxonomic classification of Agrobacterium tumefaciens.

Answer:

bacterium
