The correct answer is C. The genes for all organisms are composed of the same building blocks. This process of changing one or more characteristics of an organism by inserting genes from other organisms is known as genetic engineering. This technology has allowed humans to turn microorganisms and mammalian cells into factors.
DNA is the genetic materials of all organisms and is different for all individual creatures however all DNA is made up of the same basic molecules or base pairs.
