A news article discussing the evolution of domestic dogs from wolves included this statement: "On its way from pack-hunting carnivore to fireside companion, dogs learned to love or at least live on wheat, rice, barley, corn, and potatoes." What is a more scientifically accurate way to state what happened with dogs?

Answer:

The answer is evolutionary purpose.

Step-by-step explanation:

Some wolves may have had variants in their digestion that allowed them to eat wheat, rice, barley, corn, and potatoes, and so they were able to survive with humans.
