What are two reasons that this research was significant?

The main purpose of research is to inform action, to prove a theory, and contribute to developing knowledge in a field or study.

Explanation:

As the article stated, this example was the first time crop yield increased by tweaking the mechanisms involved in photosynthesis. Also, researchers used a creative way to manipulate photosynthesis. There are more than 100 chemical reactions in photosynthesis, and as the article stated, scientists can’t just boost the “back-to-normal” mechanisms in plants without damaging them. The scientists built upon existing scientific knowledge to come up with a creative solution that successfully boosted photosynthesis in these plants.

humans can cause extinction of a species through overharvesting, pollution, habitat destruction, introduction of invasive species (such as new predators and food competitors), overhunting, and other influences. explosive, unsustainable human population growth is an essential cause of the extinction crisis.
