If a new variety of a tree was produced by botanists through selective breeding that had a growth rate 3 times that of the trees in the scenario, how would that have affected the outcome of the simulation?

Greatly affected the outcome simulation.

Explanation:

This fast growth have greatly affected the outcome of the simulation because the tree takes less time to mature and completed its growth stages faster as compared to the old tree. The selective breeding included certain hormones that increases the rate of growth in the tree which leads to change and affected the outcome of the simulation.
