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.
Answer:
Gene knockout is a technique used to determine the function of a gene that has already been sequenced, which is achieved by analyzing the phenotype of the individual carrying the knockout mutation(s). Moreover, gene sequencing is a technique used to determine the sequence of a given gene, which allows to determine how gene variants (polymorphisms) may be associated with the phenotypes of the target trait.
Explanation:
In genetics, gene knockout is a technique used to trigger mutations in a (already) sequenced gene in order to inactive its function and observe the resulting phenotype for a particular trait. This approach that starts with the inactivation of a given gene and ends with the phenotype is known as reverse-genetics. On the other hand, gene sequencing can be defined as the methodologies/techniques/tools used to determine the nucleotide base pair sequence of a particular gene. The gene knockout technique involves knowing a priori the gene sequence in order to obtain a gene knockout (gene KO). The combination of the information obtained from these techniques can be used to determine how variation (genetic variation) affects the expression of a phenotypic trait.

To make Paramecium Contractile vacuole concentration graph useful the salt concentrations descriptions should replaced with actual values.
Thus, option "A" is correct.
What is Paramecium Contractile vacuole
"It is a sub-cellular structure (organelle) involved in osmoregulation."
<h3>What is a graph?</h3>
"A diagram (such as a series of one or more points, lines, line segments, curves, or areas) that represents the variation of a variable in comparison with that of one or more other variables."
<h3>What does the graph in the given question depict?</h3>
It shows that the Paramecium Contractile Vacuole concentration per minute decreases as salt concentration increases.
But the concentration of salt is not mention in quantity so its not clear what are the lowest and highest concentration affecting Paramecium Contractile Vacuole.
Hence, the Paramecium Contractile Vacuole concentration graph can be more useful if the actual values of salt concentration will be mentioned.
