Genetically modified (GM) foods are the ones came from organisms whose genetic material (DNA) are altered as they do not occur naturally. Food shortage, cost, variety can make people support the GM foods, while, religious beliefs, allergy, and worrying about the food can limit the support for these foods.

<h3>What are the characteristics of GM foods?</h3>

Genetically modified (GM) foods are those derived from organisms the ones genetic material (DNA) has been altered as they do not occur naturally.

Its characteristics are:

More nutritious food.
Less use of pesticides.
Faster growing plants and animals.
Disease- and drought-resistant plants.

As food shortage, cost, variety can make people support the GM foods, while, religious beliefs, allergy, and worrying about the food can limit the support for these foods.

Thus, the correct option is A.

Explanation: There is not enough information to tell if the nondisjunction happened in meiosis I or II. Nondisjunction can occur during meiosis I and meiosis II, resulting in abnormal chromosomes number of gametes. The important difference between nondisjunction in meiosis 1 and Ii is that during meiosis 1, homologous chromosomes fail to separate while in meiosis II, sister chromatids fail to separate meaning it could have happened in meiosis I or II but we were not given.

Pepsi [2]

Answer:

The correct option is: <em>a deficiency of dopamine in the substantia nigra.</em>

Explanation:

The substantia nigra is the principal site involved in the physiopathology of Parkinson´s disease.

Cells from this area degenerate and die progressively causing important degeneration in the central nervous system. The cells that die -with no known reason- are those that produce dopamine and proportionate dopaminergic innervation to the encephalon. In fact, almost all the symptoms exhibited by patients with the disease can be explained by the lack of dopamine in the substantia nigra.

This area uses the neurotransmitter to communicate neurons from the base ganglia. Ganglia are responsible of modulating and modifying movements.

The nigrostriatal system participates in planning and automatic execution of learned movements. When the ganglia activity decreases, so it does the amount and velocity of movements, something typical of the disease.

1. How did you revise your sequence from your initial idea ? Explain how you decided on the sequence. For the Natural Selection

liberstina [14]

Natural selection is the idea that organisms that posses favorable traits that enable them to survive in their environment are the ones that live long enough to pass on these traits to their offspring.

<h3>What is natural selection?</h3>

The question is incomplete but I will try my best to explain the idea of natural selection.

The term natural selection refers to the idea put forward by Charles Darwin that organisms that posses favorable traits that enable them to survive in their environment are the ones that live long enough to pass on these traits to their offspring. This is also called the survival of the fittest.
