Question

In the formation of transgenic animals, DNA is usually inserted into eggs or embryos. If some cells of the embryo do not receive the introduced DNA, the result is an organism with cells of different genotypes; the organism is known as what?

Answer 1

The correct answer will be- Chimera

Step-by-step explanation:

A chimera is an organism which is composed of cells with different genotypes.

The genetic chimera is produced during the formation of the transgenic organisms mainly animals when every cell of the growing embryo does not receive the introduced genes. This results in the formation of two or more zygotes which when merged form genetic chimera.

Thus, a chimera is the correct answer.
