The correct option is D.<span>
Craig Venter contributed significantly to science and humanity by inventing a synthetic cell. He accomplished this by constructing the genome of a bacterium and by incorporating it into a cell. The cell was made by joining together the genome of a pathogen from small stretches of DNA that are synthesized in the laboratory. The genome created was then inserted into an empty cytoplasm of a related bacterium. The pathogen use is called mycoplasma mycoides, it usually infect goats.</span>The cell is the first synthetic life form in the world and it open the way for new types of research.
