Choose the correct answer from the options given below
$(a)\quad (b)\quad (c)\quad (d)$
$(i)$ Bacillus thuringiensis are available in sachets as dried spores which are mixed with kerosine and sprayed on to vulnerable plants
$(ii)$ B. thuringiensis are used to control butterfly caterpillars, but leave other insects unharmed
$(iii) $ The toxin of B. thuringiensis is released in the blood of larvae and the larvae get killed
$(iv)$ By the development of methods of genetic engineering B. thuringiensis toxin genes have been introduced
Statement $I$ : Bt toxins are insect group specific and coded by a gene cry $IAc$.
Statement $II$ : Bt toxin exists as inactive protoxin in B. thuringiensis. However, after ingestion by the insect the inactive protoxin gets converted into active form due to acidic $\mathrm{pH}$ of the insect gut.
In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below:
