Answer: A

For having good qualities of different plants, the process of crossing between genetically dissimilar plants are used and this process is called hybridisation. There are multiple type of hybridisation and they are developed for different needs.

  • If this crossing is done between different varieties, it is called Intervarietal hybridisation.
  • If the crossing is done between different genes, then it is called inter- generic hybridisation.
  • If crossing is done between different species of same gene it is called inter-specific hybridisation.
  • In genetically modified crops we tried to introduce genes of the desired character into any plant.
