Answer:

ripen without softening

Choice A is correct

Step-by-step explanation:

The first genetically modified food was the tomato which was modified to ripen without softening.

The first genetically modified food was the Flavr Savr tomato which was engineered by Calgene to have a longer shelf life by inserting an antisense gene that delayed ripening.
