The text discusses a model explaining the transition from hunting and gathering to agriculture globally. It suggests domestication was an interactive process between humans and plants, evolving into a more beneficial symbiotic relationship.The options given are:- Oasis Theory- **Natural Habitat Hypothesis** (selected)- Population Pressure Hypothesis- Coevolutionary Model- Social HypothesisThe selected option is the "Natural Habitat Hypothesis." There are no graphs or diagrams accompanying this text.

Introduction :- Evolution is the gradual process by which the present diversity of plant and animal life arose from the earliest and most primitive organisms ,which is believed to have been in continuity for atleast past 3000 years . As firstly hunting is the only source of food but as evolution occurs , people started vegetation .Human and plants interaction is beneficial symbiotic relationship in which both provides benefit to each other .Answer :- Option d) is the correct option for this given question .The model for explaining the transition from hunting and gathering to agriculture around the world that suggests domestication was a process of interaction between humans and plants, evolving together in a more beneficial symbiotic relationship is: coevolutionary model . Explanation for correct option d) :- Co-evolution means that both Humans and plants are changing and evolving together but not separately. Human-plant interactions influences the geographi- cal patterns of human biodiversity. Because the domestication of a particular plant taxa has genetically modified those taxa and intensified human contact with specific plants and their endogenous bioactive allelochemicals (secondary plant compounds like secondary metabolites ). This interaction which is being sustained for many generations of human and plants has provided, on occasion, unique opportunities for amplified interactions of microevolutionary importance. And the genesis of agriculture was explained by David Rindos in his work "The Origins of Agriculture" (1984) as selective coevolution of plants and groups of humans who benefited mutually. He gives the example of fire ants and their symbiotic relationship with a kind of woody plant, which they defend from predators in order to exploit the plant as a resource.Explanation for incorrect options :- Option a) oasis theory is incorrect because it is a core concept in archaeology which gives an hypothesis that describes the origin of agriculture . According to this hypothesis , people begins the domestication of plants because of climate change ( environmental factors). Option b) Natural habitat hypothesis is incorrect because it also gives hypothesis about the agriculture origin which is based upon the climate change and other climate dependent environmental factors . Option c) Population pressure hypothesis is incorrect because it states that population growth pressures the population which continuously force them to readapt with their environment . It means that overpopulation reduces the natural resources which results into migration .It doesn't show any symbiotic relationship between humans and plants. Option e) Social hypothesis indicates behaviour exhibited by a group of species that interact with each other and their environment . it doesn't support mentioned things .
