Correct Answer: Pseudomonas


Solution : The correct option is Pseudomonas.

Pseudomonas putida is a bacterial strain that has been produced through genetic modification and may be used to cure oil spills. Pseudomonas putida is a naturally occurring bacterial species that has been genetically altered to improve its capacity to breakdown hydrocarbons, including crude oil components. These modified bacteria have the potential to be employed in bioremediation efforts to clean up oil-contaminated settings, such as oil spills. They aid in the natural deterioration of oil by breaking it down into less hazardous molecules.
