Which would result in higher food production at a lower cost? Select four options.cows that are able to fight off diseasesrice that has added provitamin Acorn that is resistant to diseaseswheat that is not killed by weed killer corn that can grow in cold places

Answer
A
cows that are able to fight off diseases
B
rice that has added provitamin A
C
corn that is resistant to diseases
D
wheat that is not killed by weed killer
E
corn that can grow in cold places

Explanation

Traits that protect crops or livestock can reduce losses and the costs of managing them. Disease-resistant cows and corn are less likely to be lost to disease, wheat that survives weed killer allows weeds to be controlled without harming the crop, and cold-tolerant corn can grow in colder conditions. Rice with added provitamin A improves nutritional value, but that trait does not directly increase food production or lower production costs.
