Question 17 • DRHS GA-GSE Environmental Science

Which of the following could be a result of selective breeding?

Answer
A
corn having potato offspring
B
higher yield in corn reproduction
C
rose bushes that grow without water
D
pine trees that never produce seeds

Explanation

Selective breeding means choosing plants with desirable traits to reproduce so those traits become more common. Breeding corn plants that produce more kernels could lead to higher yields in later generations. It would not make corn produce potato offspring or reliably create plants that never need water or never produce seeds.
