Which of the following is most likely to be the direct result of lack of genetic diversity in a food crop such as corn? (a) decreased kernel size- kernel size does not affect the corn’s ability to reproduce and grow.(b) decreased potential yield- the potential yield of corn does not the corn to become extinct.(c) decreased dependence on chemical fertilizers- because a decreased dependency on chemical fertilizers would make the corn stronger, and a lack of genetic diversity makes it weaker.(d) increased susceptibility to plant disease- if corn is more susceptible to plant diseases, then it will be at a risk of extinction.(e) increased resistance to pests- would make the corn stronger, and a lack of genetic diversity makes it weaker.
