The answer would be (option B) - When an object falls, its gravitational potential energy is changed to kinetic energy. You can use this relationship to calculate the speed of the object’s descent. Gravitational potential energy for a mass m at height h near the surface of the Earth is mgh more than the potential energy would be at height 0. (It’s up to you where you choose height 0.)

The answer is 
B) a flowerpot falling from a balcony.
This is the answer because potential energy is basically when something is standing still. Kinetic energy is the opposite, its when something is moving. So the flowerpot was still but something knocked it over and the potential energy was turned into kinetic energy. In option A, the kinetic energy is being turned into potential energy singe the car stopped moving. In option C, the cow is just storing potential energy and it is not being transformed into kinetic energy since the cow is not moving. Option D is not the answer because once again, this says the bike is slowing down, which means that the kinetic energy is decreasing and being turned into potential energy.

What are potential impacts on society and the environment of using a genetic approach to improving food productivity? Do you thi
Lilit [14]

Answer:

- Society: the use of genetic improving techniques may have a positive impact through crop improvement of traits of agronomic importance such as, for example, resistance to biotic and abiotic stresses.

- Environment: the development of genetically modified crops conferring resistance to pesticides may have a negative effect on wildlife species  (both plants and animals) and humans living in such agroecosystems.

Explanation:

In crops, genetic improvement technologies can be defined as the techniques associated with the development of better crop varieties, i.e., varieties that have higher grain yield, produce more biofuel, higher fiber content, etc. Genetic improvement techniques include, among others, selective breeding and genetically modified organisms. In crops, genetic improvement techniques have the potential to reduce hunger in the world. However, it is important to note that genetic engineering may be associated with the horizontal transference of genes and the development of genetically modified organisms (GMO), which may have harmful effects on wildlife species and humans, thereby GMO crops must be carefully assessed before their release into the field.
