Why might a sweet potato plant genetically engineered for a higher protein content have a greater intolerance for nitrogen-poor soils?
A) The plant requires more nitrogen so that it can produce a higher protein content.
B) Genetically engineered plants tend not to be as hardy as regular plants.
C) Plants genetically engineered to be more nutritious place greater demands on the soil.
D) Because it contains higher protein content the plant would actually help in keeping the soil nitrogen-rich.
