Q1
A tomato grower practices selective breeding by saving seeds only from plants that produce the sweetest tomatoes (measured by sugar level). After 3 generations, average sugar level rose from 4.8 to 6.1 (Brix). But the number of tomatoes per plant dropped from 30 to 22. Which statement is best supported by the evidence and balances benefits and concerns?
