replaces a T and binds to G rather than A Correct replaces a G and binds to A rather than C changes the binding affinity of G changes the binding affinity of T

Explanation

metabolic engineering and inheritance analysis shows exogenous gene introduction and pathway extension enable trait improvement. Consequently replaces a T and binds to G rather than A emerges as the valid choice since it demonstrates metabolic extension and combinatorial biosynthesis, aligning with established principles in genetics and biotechnology literature.
