    Question: StarLink is most closely associated with which of the following terms?

    Options:

    Glufosinate
    Event 176
    Cry9
    Cry1

    ✅ Explanation:
    StarLink was a genetically modified corn variety that contained the Cry9C protein, a type of Bt toxin derived from the bacterium Bacillus thuringiensis. This protein provided resistance to certain insect pests, particularly the European corn borer.

    📌 Other Options Explanations:
    -(a) Glufosinate: Glufosinate is a broad-spectrum herbicide, and while it can be used in conjunction with genetically modified crops.
    -(b) Event 176: Event 176 refers to a specific transgenic event in the development of genetically modified crops.
    -(d) Cry1: Cry1 is another type of Bt toxin used in genetically modified crops.
    -(e) Glyphosate: Glyphosate is a widely used herbicide, and while it is often used with genetically modified crops engineered for herbicide tolerance.
