All of the following are desirable qualities in a model organism EXCEPT __________.A.) long life spanB.) ease of growthC.) commo
Anna [14]

Answer:

Long life span

Explanation:

A model organism is a non  human specie that is used for study in order to understand a particular biological phenomena.

One of the qualities of a model organism is that; It should have a short life span this will make it more amenable to experimental manipulation due to short generational time. Therefor Long life span will not be a desirable characteristic.

Other desirable characteristic includes ease of growth and production of many offsprings.

Also common genetic mechanism with other organisms, they should share some degree relatedness.
