Insulin-dependent diabetics depend upon microorganisms to produce the human protein that they rely upon to uptake glucose from their bloodstreams. a) hybridized b) transgenic c) interactive d) selectively bred

B) transgenic

Explanation:

    If we think of the genome as a book and genes as words, the transgenic technique works like a text editor: you can cut, copy and paste - they all speak the same language. The gene that coordinates insulin production in humans, therefore, does the same within a bacterium, just as the gene that encodes a caterpillar toxin in a bacterium will do the same in a cornstalk. Then were born the genetically modified organisms, also known as transgenic. The much-debated agricultural varieties - soybeans, corn and cotton - are just the latest fruits of this technology.
