Explanation:

Certainly! Let's look at each option:

- Option 1: helped

- "Helped" means to aid or assist. While humans have assisted animals, the context suggests a transformation rather than just assistance.

- Option 2: domesticated

- "Domesticated" means to tame and keep animals as pets or on farms. This fits perfectly as humans have tamed animals over centuries for companionship, labor, or food.

- Correct Answer: domesticated

- Option 3: supported

- "Supported" implies providing care or backing, which doesn't capture the essence of taming and transforming wild animals.

- Option 4: saved

- "Saved" refers to rescuing or protecting, not the transformation of wild animals for domestic use.

- Option 5: apprehend

- "Apprehend" means to arrest or understand, which is not related to taming or cultivating wild animals.
