Electroporation is also used for taking up the DNA by the cells. It constitutes ____________

A. inserting the DNA into the cells via an electric shock

B. increased efficiency than both natural and chemical methods

C. causing the least amount of damage in comparison to other methods

D. decreased efficiency than both natural and chemical methods

Explanation: Electroporation is the method of DNA uptake via an electric shock. It is provided by varying the potential difference across the electrodes. It is having increased efficiency as compared to other methods. But also if prolonged treatment is given, it can cause destruction. It is so because the electric shock can be at times fatal to the cell wall.
