Answer:

concerns about the development of new weapons

Explanation:

  • Technology that makes use of organisms or their parts or products to generate a valuable substance or produce a process is termed as biotechnology.
  • Since biotechnology utilizes living organisms it is sure to have some ethical concerns associated with it as ethical issues only arise when a given process leads to. a conflict with the morals of the society.
  • The field of biotechnology has many ethical concerns associated with it which include:

1. Concern relating the privacy of genetic testing.

2. Use of privileged information

3.Potential harm to the ecosystem.

4. Providing access to new drugs and treatments.

5.Interference with nature.

Therefore, there are several ethical concerns associated with biotechnology however one thing that is proven is that there is <em>no involvement of production of any weapon of destruction in the process of biotechnology</em> and hence out of all the given options this option is incorrect.

In which scenario could natural selection most obviously occur?
3241004551 [841]
<span>Natural selection is likely when there are stronger selection pressures. For example, a perpetual selection pressure is the fact that organisms have to compete for food and resources, meaning the best adapted ones survive. However, a stronger selection pressure may cause natural selection to occur more obviously. An example of this is when the number of white peppered moths decreased during industrialization in England due to the soot collecting on the trees. The change in population was very fast and obvious.</span>

Which of these is unique to flowering plants?haploid gametophytes,an embryo surrounded by nutritive tissue,double fertilization,
fiasKO [112]

Answer:

double fertilization

Explanation:

Flowering plants or angiosperms are seed-producing plants with the ability to produce reproductive organs-flowers and fruits with seed in it (unlike gimnosperms which contain naked seed). Another distinctive feature of angiosperms is their reduced gametophytes. This feature most likely reduces the time between pollination and fertilization. Fertilization in flowerin plants is double, meaning that two sperm cells fertilize ovule cells(egg cell and central nuclei cell): one forms diploid zygote which will develop in embryo, while other form triploid cell which will develop into endosperm (provides nutrition for the embryo).

In which step of protein synthesis does the rRNA make protein?
Inessa [10]

Answer:

Translation is the second part of the central dogma of molecular biology: RNA → Protein. It is the process in which the genetic code in mRNA is read to make a protein. Translation is illustrated in the diagram below. After mRNA leaves the nucleus, it moves to a ribosome, which consists of rRNA and proteins.

Explanation:

Within the ribosome, the rRNA molecules direct the catalytic steps of protein synthesis — the stitching together of amino acids to make a protein molecule. In fact, rRNA is sometimes called a ribozyme or catalytic RNA to reflect this function.
