Genetically modified organisms include microbes used in biotechnology that possess enzymes promoting antibiotic resistance. This

could be a problem given the rise of antibiotic-resistant organisms. However, these engineered microorganisms do not pose a risk to public health. What do you think prevents them from spreading antibiotic resistance to pathogens outside the laboratory?
These microbes have been designed so that conditions outside the laboratory would be unfavorable to their survival.

Answer:

Inability to survive in wild environmental condition

Explanation:

Genetically modified organisms that are developed under a certain environmental condition are not able to survive in wild natural environmental conditions. Due to this, the antibiotic resistant GMOs will not be able to thrive outside the laboratory otherwise they could have easily affected other organism as they are resistant to their immune systems. The wild conditions outside the laboratory will not provide suitable mating conditions as well for genetic recombination and gene transfer

Answer:

A secondary pollutant

Explanation:

Pollutants can broadly be classified into two main categories based on their formation or synthesis. 1: Primary pollutants, 2: Secondary pollutants.

1: Primary pollutants

Primary pollutant can be considered as any environmental pollutant that is being directly emitted from a certain source like when we burn coal carbon di oxide is directly emitted into the atmosphere so CO2 is a primary pollutant.

Similarly sulfur di oxide or SO2 is also a primary pollutant that is emitted by the gas emissions of motor vehicles.

2: Secondary pollutants:

On the other hand, secondary pollutant is something that is not directly emitted on earth as an environmental pollutant but some how it is formed due to a reaction of primary pollutant.

Such as mentioned in the question that SO2 when oxidized in air in the presence of enzymes and water, it form H2SO4 or acid rain which directly falls on earth and incurs great amount of damage to not only living organisms but also non-living organisms such as marble buildings.

Therefore, acid rain is secondary pollutant. Please see picture for better understanding.

Hope it help!

It’s the first one!

compact bone is a dense bone with a bony matrix that is solidly filled with arya if ground substance and inorganic salts, leaving only tiny spaces (lacunae) that contain osteocytes, or bone cells. Immature compact bone DOES NOT CONTAIN OSTEONS and has a woven structure.

hope this helps!
