Ecool can be considered a manufacturer unit in the field of genetic engineering

This statement is best described by the option B. The recombinant DNA produced by the combination of a vector and gene of interest in the E.coli which produces multiple copies of this recombinant DNA along with the chromosomal DNA and expresses the gene.

Explanation:

In genetic engineering, the gene of interest is combined with a vector e.g. plasmid and inserted into the most suitable carrier for these recombinants. This carrier acts as the manufacturing unit for the gene of interest as it produces multiple copies when it replicates in a short period of time. E.coli is considered to be one of the best manufacturing units in the field of genetic engineering as it has a very flexible replication time.

any abiotic or biotic factor in an ecosystem that causes a population's size to slow or decrease is a limiting factor.
