Human insulin is the synthetic insulin which is grown in the laboratories. Human insulin is laboratory created by growing insulin proteins within E.coli bacteria (Escherichia coli). The newly constructed plasmids containing the transplanted genetic material are introduced into a benign E. coli bacterial strain. Once inside the bacteria, the genes are activated by the bacteria to form the protein chains found in insulin
So, the correct answer is 'Insulin'
