Hello everyone here We have a question asking which of the following statements about vectors and D. N. A. Technology is false. So first we need to know what a vector is. A vector inserts foreign D. N. A. Into a different cell in order to create more copies. And this is done through the organisms natural process. So a. It can be taken from a virus. This is correct. Be it can be taken from a D. N. A bacterium. This is correct. C. It can be used as an SNP marker. This is incorrect. D. It is used to insert foreign D. N. A. Into another cell. This is correct. So our answer here is see it can be used as an SNP marker. It is not used as an S. And P marker is used to insert foreign D. N. A. Into another cell in order to create more copies. Thank you for watching. Bye.
