Best answer

Right choice is (b) Yeast cells

To elaborate: It is advantageous to use yeast cells for expression of eukaryotic cells in place of prokaryotic cells. It is so because in yeast cells post-translational modifications can be done but these modifications are not possible in prokaryotic cells.
