Research applications of the basi priples of genetios have greatly contributed to the rapid development of new varieties of plants and

animals. Which activity is an example of such an appliation

Selective breeding of plant and animals that exhibit high resistance to disease.

Explanation:

Selective breeding or artificial selection is the process in which two individuals with beneficial traits are crossed to have the desired phenotype in progeny. It uses the process of natural selection in its process.

These are beneficial in the improvement of crops and yields of animals. New plant and animal can be created. This is a form of genetic engineering.

The breeding process does not cause harm to the breeding organisms.

examples of plant selective breeding: broccoli and brussels sprout.

animal selective breeding: large milk yielding cows.
