Mice are the most common transgenic

The reasons why mice are used are

as follows:
The mouse genome is very similar to
our own or humans', making mouse
genetic research particularly useful for
the study of human diseases. Mice are
cost-effective because they are cheap
and easy to care for. Adult mice

IUDS especially Copper T is one of the

most popular and common contraceptive
used in India and it is considered to be
better than other contraceptives like
condoms, pills etc.
They are the best way to avoid pregnancy

by stopping sperm to enter inside.
Copper T prevents fertilization in two
ways, the copper in the IUD kills the
sperm mobility by acting as a spermicide,
and it also hinders the ability of the egg
to implant into the womb.
Diaphragms, cervical caps are also

barriers made of rubber that are inserted
into the female reproductive tract to
cover the cervix during coitus. They are
reusable.
Tubectomy is to cut fallopian tubes. This

technique highly effective but their
irreversibility is poor.
Hence, the correct option is D i.e. IUD's

(intra uterine devices).

do have a kind of skeleton. The bodies of
starfish are composed of calcium
carbonate plates, known as 'ossicles'.
These form the endoskeleton, which
takes on a variety of forms such as
spines and granules. They have a

(B) Restriction enzymes are used in the

isolation of the specific segment of DNA
from the DNA of the organism because
these enzymes are capable of cutting the
DNA at the specific location.
(C) Downstream processing is one of the

steps in the r-DNA technology. It involves
the extraction and purification of the
