Question

The application of biotechnology includes all except

• A. therapeutics
• B. diagnostics
• C. convential hybridization
• D. bioremediation

Answer 1

The correct option is C convential hybridization

Therapeutics, diagnostics, and bioremediation involve applications of biotechnology. While conventional breeding or hybridization develops new plant varieties by the process of selection and seeks to achieve expression of genetic material which is already present within a species. Conventional breeding employs processes that occur in nature, such as sexual and asexual reproduction.

So, the correct option is 'conventional hybridization'.
