Transposons can be used during which one of the following?

  1. A
    Polymerase chain reaction
  2. B
    Gene silencing
  3. C
    Autoradiography
  4. D
    Gene sequencing

Solution & Step-by-step Explanation

Transposons (jumping genes) are used in RNA interference (RNAi) or Gene Silencing. They serve as a source of complementary RNA that can form double-stranded RNA (dsRNA), which initiates the silencing of specific mRNA in eukaryotic cells.
