Answer:

C. Diabetics will have ample supplies of insulin that are produced by bacteria.

Explanation:

The technology of recombinant DNA has allowed scientists to introduce the human insulin gene into E.coli bacteria. E. coli are thus turned into "biological factories" that produce large quantities of human insulin, which can be easily purified and used as medicine for diabetics.

There are many more examples of DNA recombinant technology in human medicine, such as the production of recombinant human growth hormone (hGH) also in E. coli that is injected in individuals who don't produce enough hGH naturally, or even the production of vaccines by inserting antigen-coding DNA into a cell, purifying it and later injecting it into individuals to stimulate immunization.

  • Bacteria when goes into the environment which had a high sugar content, gets killed, which happens due to the loss of water from the cell.

Which benefits do mangrove trees provide to surrounding coastal wetlands? Check all that apply.
Anon25 [30]

The mangroves trees help in holding the soil in place, they help in absorbing the energy of waves, and they help in filtering water and better the quality of it.  

Mangroves are a kind of estuarine or coastal wetland, featured by the existence of salt amended shrubs and trees, which develops beside the coast in subtropical or tropical latitudes all around the world. Several of the mangroves forests can be determined by their dense tangle of prop roots, which make the trees seem to be standing on stilts above the water.  

The mangroves safeguard the shorelines from destructing hurricane, storms, winds, and floods. They help in inhibiting erosion by stabilizing the sediments with their tangled root infrastructure. They sustain the clarity and quality of water, trapping the sediments and filtering pollutants arising from land.
