Option 3 states that the production of the anticoagulant hirudin is achieved through the use of transgenic Brassica napus seeds. This implies that genetic manipulation techniques have been employed to introduce the necessary genes responsible for hirudin production into the seeds of Brassica napus, resulting in the generation of transgenic plants capable of synthesizing the anticoagulant.

Hence, the correct answer is option 3.
