I need help with this question.  Thanks Smiling Face with Open Mouth and Tightly-closed Eyes

Suppose you want to change a plant that produces simple leaves into one that produces compound leaves instead. Which experimental approach is most likely to succeed?
Suppose you want to change a plant that produces simple leaves into one that produces compound leaves instead. Which experimental approach is most likely to succeed?
    A)Engineer the plant to reduce PHAN gene expression.
    B)Treat developing seeds with additional auxin morphogen.
    C)Engineer the plant to increase PHAN gene expression.
    D)Expose the shoot apical meristems (SAMs) to more light.
