I think the correct answer is that its the process by which polar molecules (DNA) is introduced into the cell through application of high voltage (which creates holes in the Plasma membrane).

This techniques used to express the target protein in either plant cell or animal cell. One type of gene expression method.

Its a method by which high voltage is introduced so as the coated DNA is introduced into cells.

The correct answer is A. The definition of electrophoresis is the separation of charged molecules based on the electric field.

Electroporation is a significant increase in the electrical conductivity and permeability of the cell plasma membrane caused by an externally applied electrical field. It is usually used in molecular biology as a way of introducing some substance into a cell, such as loading it with a molecular probe, a drug that can change the cell's function, or a piece of coding DNA.

Answer is A. Because charged molecules separate depends on electric field.

Electroporation is a mechanical method used to introduce polar molecules into a host cell through the cell membrane.
In this procedure, a large electric pulse temporarily disturbs the phospholipid bilayer, allowing molecules like DNA to pass into the cell.

Electroporation is one of the methods through which the plasma membrane of the E. Coli bacteria is made permeable by using agents like cacl, so that the plasmid can easily pass inside the cytoplasm.
