Best answer
Right option is (a) Yeast artificial chromosome

The explanation is: For cloning DNA sequences of a size larger than 20 to 25 kb, the conventional vectors such as plasmids and bacteriophages can not be used. For the cloning of large DNA fragments, the yeast artificial chromosome (YAC) may be used.
