Answer:

Option C, by changing the genetic makeup of the crops

Explanation:

In a genetically engineered crop, certain traits of a crop are modified to improvise its breed. In this way a crop can be made pest /insecticide resistant which means that a genetically modified (GMO) crop will not be affected by the pest or insecticides. Thus, even though a spray is used near and around a pesticide resistant crop to kill the weeds and unwanted plants , the sprayed chemical will have negligible adverse impact on it.

After the dissolving cell membrane, there is a chance to DNA gets damaged by various chemicals, therefore, alcohol is used to allow DNA to form clumps or precipitate.

Straining is used to separate the cell organelle, dissolved cell membrane from DNA and protein. Papain is a meat tenderizer and a protein enzyme that cuts or breaks the protein.
