aceutical products c. the use of organisms to remove pollutants from the environment d. the use of prokaryotes in producing transgenic organisms e. the use of biological processes to remedy diseases
The correct answer is c. the use of organisms to remove pollutants from the environment
Explanation:
Bioremediation is a process in which living organisms are involved in the treatment and removal of pollutants from the environment. Bacteria, fungi, and archaea are the organism that is widely used in bioremediation because they reproduce very fast.
