Question
A new species of plant is found in the rainforest. How can genotyping help scientists to determine what the plant is?
A. can analyze the proteins that are essential for survival to help determine the plants function
B. can determine where the species originated from and which group migrated it to the rainforest
C. can determine which diseases it is resistant to for further study
D. can compare similarities found in reference sequence to determine any potential relations

D. can compare similarities found in reference sequence to determine any potential relations
Genotyping allows scientists to analyze the genetic makeup of the newly found plant species and compare it to existing reference sequences of known species. This comparison can help identify evolutionary relationships, determine whether the new plant belongs to a known group, and help clarify its classification within the plant kingdom.
