The growth of animal cells in vitro in a suitable culture medium is called ___________

  • A.Gene expression
  • B.Transgenesis
  • C.Animal tissue culture
  • D.Plant tissue culture

Answer: D

Correct answer: Animal tissue culture

Growing animal cells outside the body in a suitable medium is animal tissue (cell) culture. It requires a sterile environment, a medium supplying nutrients and growth factors, and usually a surface for the cells to attach to. Plant tissue culture is the equivalent for plants, and works quite differently because plant cells are totipotent.
