Solution

Vectors used for multiplying the foreign DNA sequences are called cloning vectors.

A small piece of DNA, taken from a virus, a plasmid, or the cell of a higher organism that can be stably maintained in an organism is isolated.

Into that, a foreign DNA fragment can be inserted for cloning purposes.

There are many types of cloning vectors. They are:

Artificial chromosomes include

Ribosomes and schistosomes are not used as cloning vectors.

Therefore, the cloning vectors among the following are plasmids, Cosmids, and artificial chromosomes.
