Breeders that cross genetically different individuals in hope of producing organisms with multiple desirable traits are using a technique called

a. cloning
b. hybridization
c. genetic engineering
d. inbreeding

answer : the correct answer is- c. genetic engineering.

genetic engineering can be described as a technology or a process to manipulate the dna of an organism in order to bringdesirable changes in the phenotype of characteristics of the organism (such as genetically modified crops for better yield, pest resistant crops).

this technology primarily comprises of three steps-

1) isolation of dna having desired gene from donor organism.

2) insertion of dna intoa vector (such as circular plasmid, isolated from bacteria).

3) insertion of recombinant plasmid into the desirable host so that desirable gene product is produced through the expression of the vector.

thus, breeders use genetic engineering for producing organisms with multiple desirable traits.
