Answer: Science, engineering, and technology permeate nearly every facet of modern life and hold the key to solving many of humanity's most pressing current and future challenges. The United States' position in the global economy is declining, in part because U.S. workers lack fundamental knowledge in these fields.
Explanation:
To maintain a line of pure-breeding peas, selective breeders would use a technique called artificial cross-pollination. This is a technique were breeders transfer pollen from the anthers of one pea plant (male parent) to a stigma of a flower (female parent).
This technique was developed by Gregor Mendel, the founder of the science of genetics. He was a monk who dedicated his time in research about how genes of plants are carried over through specific species. In his controlled experiment he used the pea plant because they are cheap and readily available from merchants who sold them in different classifications. He also used pea plants because they have the capacity to self-pollinate or cross-pollinate.
The correct option is this: A STRONG WIND BLOW ACROSS A MIDWESTERN PRAIRIE.
A strong wind is an example of a natural force. The prairie refers to a land fill with grasses and that is a natural factor also. Thus, a strong wind that is blowing across a prairie is generating a natural form of energy. The energy flow in the other options given are examples of man made devices.
