Correct answer: C. Genetic engineering
- A. Pasteurization
- B. Hydroponic culture technique
- C. Genetic engineering
- D. Biological control techniques

Genetic engineering allows breeders to alter specific genes or introduce useful genes, producing organisms with desired traits such as improved yield, nutrition or resistance to pests. Pasteurization preserves food after production, whereas hydroponics changes the growing system and does not directly create new inherited varieties.
