Answer:

Agriculture  

Explanation:

Genetic engineering can be defined as the use of genetic techniques aimed at modifying the genome of living organisms, thereby being used to develop Genetically Modified Organisms (GMOs). In the USA, genetic engineering methodologies have been used in agriculture to improve crop yields and reduce costs (for example, by reducing the need to use pesticides). Some of the most important genetic engineering techniques that nowadays are being used in agriculture research include biolistic transformation, <em>Agrobacterium</em>-mediated transformation, the CRISPR-Cas9 genome editing system, etc.

The failure of the attempt to reintroduce clapper rails in California was an example of the _____.
Lemur [1.5K]

The correct answer is option D, difficulty of redesigning workable ecosystems

Reason -

The area that was redesigned into an ecosystem actually failed to attract the endangered species of clapper rails in California because of the following two reasons –

a) Failed attempt of restoration of Cord grass ( a tree which is a dominant tree in the nesting habitat of clapper rail) . Even if few such trees were there they could not grow to their full height and thus were incapable of providing adequate nesting cover

b) Due to the lack of predatory insect, some herbivore insect in the ecosystem attacked the green grasses thereby making the nesting inadequate.
