1) Read the given passage and answer the question that follow:
The archaeologists normally expect the botanists to build up the model of the beginnings of agriculture. It is often difficult
to identify wild ancestors with confidence and to reconstruct the conditions under which steps of domestication would have
taken place in the past. Oryza nivara is generally accepted as the annual wild progenitor of Oryza sativa. However, several
different species in the past may have contributed to Oryza sativa. Several strains designated as perennial asexually Oryza
rufipogon that contained annual forms are reported to have some distinct features contributed by the cultivators of Oryza
