The correct answer for the question that is being presented above is this one: "Synthesized." A scientist isolates a gene from a human cell that codes for a specific protein. The gene is inserted into a bacterial plasmid in order to mass produce the protein for medical purposes. The next step in mass production of the protein would be synthesized of the bacterium containing the modified plasmid.<span>

A
A is correct for this problem
Scientists should not have the ability to patent their own research methods as this prevents additionally scientific knowledge to be present within the experimental sciences. The last step of the scientific method is to communicate and share your own findings, and without the ability to do so, it prevents constructive criticisms of the method as well as improvements that would otherwise be prevented from patenting. In the field of genetic engineering specifically, the Human Genome project or (HGP) was an international scientific investigation that promoted communication between scientists rather than the restriction of scientific knowledge. The results of this international collaboration led to multitudes of information being presented regarding human genetic makeup. Therefore, patents ultimately prevent the progression of the sciences and scientific knowledge.
I dont know if there are typos but hopefully this helps.
