Solution

The correct option is D
Artificial pollination

Artificial pollination is the first step of crossing or hybridization of chosen varieties. This is done to get desired, superior varieties in plants like grains, fruits, vegetables etc. The resulting varieties are called as hybrids. Humans suppress the natural pollination and carry out deliberate pollination (artificial pollination) between the flowers of the chosen parent plants.
