Which is an example of selective breeding?

Answer
A
Comparing pea plants that have white flowers to green bean plants that have white flowers.
B
Transferring pollen from flowers on one pea plant to flowers on another pea plant.
C
Grinding the peas from a pea plant into flour to create new food products.
D
Planting peas in a garden one year and planting green beans the next year to enrich the soil.

Explanation

Selective breeding involves choosing organisms with desired traits and using them to produce offspring. Transferring pollen from one pea plant to another can cross-pollinate the plants and combine their traits. Comparing plants does not produce offspring, and the other choices involve food processing or crop rotation.
