They collected water samples and isolated DNA the fish had left behind
so maybe. i would still put D.
Answer;
D. they collect and filter water samples to isolate the DNA carp left behind.
Explanation;
-Environmental DNA is DNA that is collected from a variety of environmental samples such as soil, seawater, or even air rather than directly sampled from an individual organism. As various organisms interact with the environment, DNA is expelled and accumulates in their surroundings.
-Due to the fact that there may only be a few of the carp of eDNA in a large body of water, the process of analyzing environment DNA allows the scientists to determine the presence of these invasive species without positive visual identification.
