Answer: C.) recombinant dna

Explanation: This is achieved by inserting the DNA encoding the desired protein into the genome of the host organism, usually through methods such as plasmid transfection or viral infection. The host organism is then able to use its own machinery to express the foreign DNA and produce the protein of interest.
