Why does it take so long time to develop a new variety of tomato

1 answer:

8 0

The most likely reason for the breeding of the tomato plants. When one mixes plants together, they have to be sure they are compatible. Otherwise, this could result in failed plants and perhaps even a new type of tomato plant which takes over other plants. Because of this, breeders have to consider every detail when creating a new type of tomato. Another reason is time. In most casinarios when you breed two plants together, you have to take a part from each plant. It could take months for the plants to breed, and they may not even end up being successful!

Mass box A = 10 grams; Mass box B = 5 grams; Mass box C—made of one A and one B How many boxes of B would be required to make 30

Iteru [2.4K]

Mass box C is 10+5. (So C is 15)

But if C was 30, how many times could you put B (5) into it?

30/5 = 6

You would need 6 boxes of B to make 30 grams of C.
