With bioengineered foods, you risk ingesting chemicals that are foreign to your body. If you ingest too much of the chemicals, your own body could be changed. For example, you have a natural orange. Scientists want to make your natural oranges bigger and sweeter, so they modify the DNA of the orange. With the modified DNA the new orange changed how it grew, increasing the number of natural chemicals (chemicals created by the orange to grow) it created. These chemicals are ingested by you, the consumer, and after eating your new oranges for a year every day, you notice you may have fertility issues, increased aging, etc. By eating bioengineered foods, you can find changes in your body that wouldn't have occurred if you stuck to that natural orange. 


Hope this isn't too long and confusing.

Using complete sentences, identify the three major mountain ranges in the United States, and describe the relative location of e
Tpy6a [65]

The 3 major mountain ranges in the United States are the Pacific ranges and Rocky Mountains in the west and the Appalachian mountains in the east. The Pacific ranges are on the northwestern coast of the United States. The Rocky Mountains are in the western United States but east of the Pacific ranges. They extend all the way from Canada into Mexico and cover 8 states. The Appalachian Mountains are near the East Coast of the United States. They extend from Canada to Alabama. The main difference between the eastern mountain ranges and the western mountain ranges is their ages and heights. The Appalachian Mountain range is the oldest range in the United States. Because of this, the range has faced weathering and erosion, which has worn the mountains down. The highest peaks in the Appalachians are only 6,000 feet. The ranges in the west are much younger and in some cases still growing. The mountains in the west are much higher than those in the east, with peaks over 14,000 ft.

Absolute age examines the position of rocks in a sequence. true or false?
Vedmedyk [2.9K]
No, this is statement is false!

An absolute age is not dependent on anything - it's the age in "years" not "older than" or "younger than".

The position of rocks is more inherent to the relative age of the rocks- relative to the other layers of the rocks.
