"Golden Rice" ________.

Biology
1 answer:
Vinvika [58]1 year ago
7 0

<u>"Golden Rice"</u> contains daffodil genes that increase vitamin A content.

Golden Rice is a type of rice (Oryza sativa) that has undergone genetic engineering in order for the edible parts of the rice to biosynthesize beta-carotene, a precursor to vitamin A.  The goal is to create fortified food that can be grown and eaten in regions that lack dietary vitamin A. A lack of vitamin A results in xerophthalmia, which includes permanent blindness as well as a variety of eye conditions ranging from night blindness to more serious clinical outcomes like keratomalacia and corneal scars. Additionally, it raises children's mortality risks from both diarrhea and measles.

neonofarm [45]

Answer: This moth has evolved

Explanation:

Evolutionary patterns show different patterns. One of the patterns is that: one species gradually transform into another species.

The above mentioned pattern is responsible for the moth's ability to lay more eggs and have more surviving offspring than other moths in the area. The moth is gradually transforming, so also its offspring will inherit these new traits, and it would further demonstrate evolution of one species.

Thus, it can be concluded that the unique ability of this moth over other moths is because the moth has evolved.
