Incomplete question. The full question reads;
Which change makes Dr. Jordan's situation more plausible in the following scenario?
Dr. Jordan, a bioengineer, dedicated her life's research to finding a way to create edible plants that are not susceptible to fungal diseases or other problems that make the plant die before its fruit reaches maturity. After receiving funding from the government, Dr. Jordan developed a new type of seedling that is resistant to major fungal growths.
Answer:
change "the government" to "a private bioengineering firm"
Step-by-step explanation:
Remember, the term 'plausible' could also mean believable. Hence, by changing the statement to Dr. Jordan received funding from a private bioengineering firm.
Hence, it is more plausible or believable that the work of Dr. Jordan would be recognized by a private bioengineering firm than by the government because in most cases this type of funding is made available by a bioengineering firm.
