Scientists have created genetically modified organisms (gmos) by isolating and then transferring the jellyfish gene for green fluorescent protein into pigs, bacteria, plants, and mice. the result was bioluminescent organisms! these experiments demonstrate thata. genes can only be transferred to other organisms within the same species
b. genes have no difficulty crossing the species barrier.
c. animal genes from one species will not function if transferred into other animals.
d. jellyfish genes may be transferred into other aquatic ectotherms, but not mammals.
