The correct response is:
making crops that are resistant to pesticides and insects
This action involves directly altering the genetic makeup of the crops through techniques such as gene editing or transgenics, which are key components of genetic modification (creating GMOs). The other options involve traditional forms of breeding or selection, which do not constitute genetic modification.
