Plant and animal breeders have developed new methods by which of the following?

Correct answer: D. Both a and b

  • A. Selective breeding
  • B. Using principles of genetics
  • C. Biological control
  • D. Both a and b

Explanation

The correct answer is 'Both a and b.'. Plant and animal breeders utilize both selective breeding and principles of genetics to develop new, improved breeds. Selective breeding involves choosing specific parents to enhance certain traits, while genetics helps understand and apply heredity laws to achieve desired outcomes. Biological control is unrelated to breeding, as it focuses on pest management.
