Which picture was created using DNA origami recently?

Options:
A .  Cleopatra
B .  Monalisa
C .  Princess Elsa
D .  Tajmahal
Answer: Option B
Caltech scientists have made the world's smallest recreation of Leonardo da Vinci's Mona Lisa, the size of a bacterium, out of DNA. The technique, dubbed DNA origami, enabled scientists to fold DNA into desired self-assembling structures using 64 tiles, which were 100 nanometers wide. The team also created a life-sized portrait of a bacterium and a bacterium-sized portrait of a rooster.
