20. A horticulturist wants to plant that produces flowers with a certain size color and fragrance but is not aware of any one plant having all of these traits. The quickest way she could achieve her goal would be to apply the process of .

I think the answer to this question is artificial selection. Artificial selection only the organisms with the desire characteristic, such as color are bred.

It can't be, Its not in the word bank.

Well IDK What Is It Really?

The quickest way for the horticulturist to achieve her goal of a plant with specific traits is to apply the process of hybridization.

Hybridization involves crossing two different plant varieties or species to create offspring with desired traits. This process allows for the combination of various traits from different plants to create a new plant that possesses the desired characteristics.

To employ hybridization, the horticulturist can follow these steps:

1. Identify the desired traits: Determine the specific flower size, color, and fragrance that the horticulturist wants in the plant.

2. Research existing plant varieties: Find different plants that possess some of the desired traits, even if no single plant has all of them. Look for varieties that have similar characteristics but differ in the ones the horticulturist wants to combine.

3. Crossbreed selected plants: Take pollen from the male reproductive organs (stamen) of one plant and transfer it to the female reproductive organ (pistil) of another plant. This can be done manually with a small brush or by allowing insects or wind to carry the pollen naturally.

4. Collect and sow seeds: After successful pollination, seeds will be formed. Collect the seeds and sow them in a controlled environment like a greenhouse or nursery.

5. Observe and select offspring: As the new plants grow, observe their characteristics, focusing on the desired traits. Select offspring that exhibit the desired flower size, color, and fragrance.

6. Repeat the process: If the desired traits are not fully achieved in the first generation of hybrid plants, select the best offspring and repeat the process of crossbreeding and selection. This iterative process will help refine the traits with each generation.

By employing hybridization, the horticulturist can combine specific traits from different plants and achieve the desired flower size, color, and fragrance in a new plant variety.
