A technology for achieving eugenic aims?
Correct answer: A. Cloning
- A. Cloning
- B. Hydroponic culture technique
- C. Bioremediation
- D. Tissue culture technique
Explanation
The correct answer is cloning. Cloning is a technology that can be used to achieve eugenic aims by replicating organisms with desirable traits to create genetically identical copies. It directly manipulates genetic material to ensure specific hereditary outcomes, which aligns with the concept of eugenics. The hydroponic culture technique is focused on plant growth without soil and does not involve genetic manipulation. Bioremediation involves using organisms to clean environmental pollutants and is unrelated to genetic goals. Tissue culture technique is used for growing cells in artificial conditions, often for research, and is not primarily used for eugenic purposes.

About Introduction to Biology
Biology is divided into fields such as botany, zoology, microbiology, genetics, ecology, physiology and biotechnology, each focusing on a different aspect of life. Levels of biological organization progress from atoms and molecules through organelles, cells, tissues, organs and organ systems to organisms, populations, communities, ecosystems and the biosphere.
