Answer:

If it's a natural ability for the plant, it's probably not genetically engineered. It depends on the plant species/fruit.

Explanation:

Predation: A biological interaction where one organism, the predator, kills and eats another organism, its prey.

Genetically Engineered Organism: An animal, plant, or microbe whose DNA has been altered using genetic engineering techniques.

In most cases with let's say a pepper plant, the plant will produce a chemical compound called capsaicin. This is what makes the peppers spicy. It really just depends on the plant we're talking about.

Cathy hypothesized that corn would not grow in mud. To test this hypothesis, she took corn kernels and placed 5 in mud, 3 in soi
Softa [21]
The seeds she planted in the mud grew quicker because the mud is holding nutrition for the corn. The soil is a good guess to make, but the mud is more dense and moist. The water wouldn't have had more nutrients than the mud, just because the mud holds breakdown matter and other things from other plants.
