Q:

Why are yeast cells frequently used as hosts for cloning?

C) only yeast cells allow the gene to be cloned D) they easily form colonies
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) they are eukaryotic cells

Thus human recombinant protein genes are usually cloned in yeast cells. Also since they have a short generation time, they can be easily culture.
