Vedclass · Answer

(D) The Human Genome Project $(HGP)$ involved the cloning of $DNA$ fragments in suitable vectors and their subsequent sequencing. For this purpose,specialized cloning vectors such as $BAC$ (Bacterial Artificial Chromosomes) and $YAC$ (Yeast Artificial Chromosomes) were used. These vectors were introduced into host organisms,specifically bacteria and yeast,to facilitate the replication and amplification of the $DNA$ segments. Therefore,both bacteria and yeast were used as host organisms in the $HGP$.

Column-$I$	Column-$II$
