Which of the following is a likely description of how early humans domesticated plants?


A) After careful observation, early humans began to understand the science behind plant growth, which enabled them to grow crops on a very large scale.
B) As human societies grew larger and more complex, they collectively decided that growing food for themselves would be far more efficient than gathering it from the wild.
C) Humans separated out the seeds of those plants they liked to eat over generations by chance and slowly began to observe that they could coax these plants to grow by placing their seeds in the ground.
D) As global temperatures began to fall roughly 10,000 years ago, humans had to rapidly develop more reliable ways of feeding their communities. The domestication of plants was therefore the outcome of ecological necessity.
