Answer»

The correct choice is (d) Embryonic stage

The best I can EXPLAIN: To treat any gene-related DISORDER with the help of gene therapy, the NORMAL gene should be introduced within the CELLS in embryonic stages. This is done in the early stages because modification in germ cells causes modification in all cells of that organism. Thus all cells will RECEIVE the normal genes.
