Answer:

Moth populations should be monitored in both, normal wheat and engineered wheat

Explanation:

Genetically engineered wheat crop means that the genome of the wheat is being manipulated by the techniques of biotechnology. Gene for the resistance to moths is introduced into wheat in order for plant to become protected. Determination of resistance should be performed via monitoring of control group (normal wheat, not resistance to moth) and engineered wheat (potentially resistant) and their comparation. Moth population should be decreased in the resistance plants.

Which best describes how an organism’s niche is determined?
dusya [7]

The correct answer is that it is an organism's habitat and inherited traits that determine its niche.

The principle of competitive exclusion states that the two species cannot hold the similar niche in the same habitat. A niche of an organism is predicted by its habitat that is its physical surrounding. The inherited traits and adaptation enhances the organism's chances of survival, and it also predicts a niche of an organism.
