Answer:
This is an example of artificial selection because human beings developed these different varieties of vegetables by selectively breeding cabbage for some particular characteristic properties.
The cabbage that we eat was bred after selecting smaller distances between 2 plants, while broccoli is an example of arrested flower development.
Breeding of cabbage to generate sterile flowers led to the development of the cauliflower plant. On the other hand, breeding and selection of the swollen portions resulted in the kohlrabi plant.
